EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning cartouche adorned with intricate ornamentation and classical quotes. Created by the talented artists Frans Huys, Hans Vredeman de Vries, and Gerard de Jode in 1555, this masterpiece is a true testament to their artistic prowess. The focal point of the image is the beautifully crafted cartouche, featuring delicate scroll work, grotesques, mascarons, and garlands. It exudes an air of elegance and sophistication that transports viewers back to the Renaissance era. Hanging from a ribbon shaded frame within the cartouche is a quote from Epictetus: "Magis necessarium est mederi animae quam corpori; mori enim melius quam male vivere" which translates to "It is more necessary to heal the soul than the body; for dying is better than living badly". This profound message serves as a reminder of the importance of nurturing our inner selves. Surrounding this thought-provoking quote are various elements such as birds, creatures, bunches of fruit, and ribbons that add depth and visual interest to the composition. The attention to detail in every aspect of this artwork truly makes it stand out. Quint Lox has masterfully captured this remarkable piece through his lens. His skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only its beauty but also its historical significance. This print would make an excellent addition to any art lover's collection or serve as an inspiring decorative piece in any space.
