EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Riot at Tours where the corpse of a Protestant is mistreated, France 1621" captured by Jan Luyken and Caspar Luyken in 1696, we are transported back to a tumultuous period in French history. The image depicts a scene of chaos and violence during a riot that unfolded in Tours. The composition showcases the horrifying mistreatment of the lifeless body of a Protestant individual, highlighting the religious persecution faced by believers during this time. The print serves as an unsettling reminder of the brutality inflicted upon those who dared to hold different beliefs. Jan Luyken's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and intensity to the image, evoking strong emotions within viewers. Every detail meticulously portrayed on paper transports us into this historical event, allowing us to witness firsthand the plundering and destruction that took place. Caspar Claesz ten Hoorn's collaboration with Jan Luyken further enhances the impact of this powerful visual narrative. Their combined artistic vision brings forth not only an accurate representation but also an emotionally charged account that resonates even centuries later. Quint Lox's inclusion in attributing this work from Liszt Collection ensures its preservation for future generations to appreciate and learn from. This print serves as both a testament to human resilience amidst adversity and a stark reminder of our shared history marked by intolerance and persecution.
