EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Slaughtering of an Ox and Grape Harvesting, Zodiacal Sign of Libra". Created by the Workshop of the Master of James IV of Scotland, a Flemish artist active between 1465 and 1541, this piece is believed to have originated in Bruges, Belgium around 1510-1520. The painting depicts two distinct scenes intertwined beautifully on parchment using tempera colors, gold accents, and ink. In one scene, we witness the slaughtering of an ox with meticulous detail and precision. The artist's skillful brushstrokes capture the intensity and significance of this ritualistic act. In contrast to the solemnity surrounding the ox slaughter, another scene unfolds simultaneously - grape harvesting. Symbolizing the zodiacal sign of Libra, this harvest represents balance and harmony within nature's cycles. The vibrant colors used to depict ripe grapes evoke a sense of abundance and prosperity. Measuring approximately 23.2 x 16.7 cm (9 1/8 x 6 9/16 in. ), this exquisite artwork is both visually stunning and culturally significant. It offers us a glimpse into Flemish artistry during the Renaissance period while also exploring themes such as agriculture, astrology, and human-animal relationships. As we admire this print from Liszt Collection without any commercial intentions or affiliations mentioned here; let us appreciate its historical value as it transports us back in time to experience these timeless moments
