EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing print from the Liszt Collection captures a scene filled with symbolism and cautionary messages. Titled "Better blown mouth burned, Two charlatans for a table" the image depicts two charlatans surrounded by bottles, jars, and coins on a makeshift table. One of the charlatans is seen blowing into a bowl of hot liquid, perhaps showcasing their deceptive tricks or attempting to impress onlookers. However, the caption in Latin and Dutch found in the margin suggests that this act serves as a reminder to be more careful and avoid unnecessary misery. The phrase "Better save than sorry" echoes through these lines, emphasizing the importance of prudence over recklessness. The costumes worn by these characters reflect traditional men's clothing from that era, complete with headgear such as hats. The artist behind this engraving is Pieter de Jode (I), who was active in the Netherlands between 1590 and 1632. Through its intricate details and thought-provoking composition, this paper engraving invites viewers to contemplate deeper meanings beyond its surface appearance. It serves as a visual representation of timeless proverbs and sayings while shedding light on human nature's tendency to take risks without considering potential consequences.
