EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Landscape with corn harvest: August" by Jan van de Velde (II) takes us back in time to the bountiful month of August. The image showcases a picturesque countryside scene, symbolizing the zodiacal sign Virgo and its association with agriculture. The landscape is adorned with lush fields of cereal crops, including wheat, rice, rye, oats, maize, buckwheat, and millet. The golden hues of these grains evoke feelings of abundance and nourishment. In the foreground, farmers are seen diligently binding sheaves of harvested wheat while others take a well-deserved rest after their laborious work. Amidst this idyllic setting lies a group of figures engaging in various activities. Some can be seen enjoying a momentary respite from their tasks by indulging in food and drink or even dancing together. Love seems to permeate the air as couples embrace amidst the scenic beauty surrounding them. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical act of harvesting but also conveys a sense of harmony between man and nature during this fruitful period. Additionally, Van de Velde incorporates an astrological element into his composition by including symbols representing the constellation Virgo - further emphasizing the connection between celestial forces and earthly cycles. Quint Lox's print beautifully encapsulates both the practicality and poetry found within agricultural traditions throughout history – reminding us to appreciate not only our sustenance but also those who work tirelessly to bring it forth from Mother Earth
