EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us to a hilly landscape bustling with activity during the grain harvest. In this particular scene, we witness farmers diligently tending to their crops. A group of men can be seen threshing the grain, separating it from its husks with rhythmic motions. Meanwhile, in the background, two individuals work together to plow a field and another man carefully sows new corn seeds. Amidst this flurry of agricultural labor, our attention is drawn to a peaceful sight under a tree: a sloth peacefully slumbers. Its serene presence offers a stark contrast to the industrious atmosphere surrounding it. As we delve deeper into the meaning behind this image, we discover that it is inspired by Spruch 20:4 from the Bible. Accompanying this thought-provoking visual representation is an explanatory text in Latin that further enriches our understanding of its significance. This print forms part of an album titled "Sloth lying under tree harvesting Sloth story" which belongs to Philips Galle's renowned series called "Thesaurus sacrarum historiaru [m] veteris testame [n] ti". Through intricate engravings on paper and meticulous artistry, Galle brings forth an extraordinary collection that captures various aspects of life during harvest time - including moments of rest and leisure such as eating, dancing, and making love.
