EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "November: slaughter time" we are transported back to the year 1574, where the works of Anonymous, Crispijn van de Passe (I), and Maerten de Vos come together in a mesmerizing display. The image showcases the essence of November, with its zodiacal significance and laborious undertones. At the center of the frame, a man and woman can be seen engaged in slaughtering an ox and pig. This scene represents their work corresponding to Sagittarius, one of the signs of the zodiac associated with November. The print is meticulously detailed, capturing every aspect of this act with precision. The Latin inscription on the mirrored picture reads "uitbeent" which translates to "slaughter" or "butchery". This further emphasizes the theme depicted in this artwork - November as a month dedicated to such labor-intensive tasks. Crispijn van de Passe (I) skillfully captures these scenes while Maerten de Vos adds his artistic touch by mirroring them within a larger composition. Together, they create a harmonious blend that transports us back in time. This print from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only historical artistry but also gain insight into how different cultures perceived each month's unique characteristics. It serves as a reminder that even mundane activities like slaughtering animals held great significance throughout history.
