EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print, titled "The Return of the Prodigal Son," dates back to the 16th century and was created by the renowned Dutch artist, Cornelis Anthonisz. The image depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of Luke, where the prodigal son, represented by the figure on the left, returns to his father's embrace after years of living a dissolute life. The father, shown with a crown on his head and a scepter in hand, symbolizes God's infinite mercy and love. Surrounding the father and son, a group of allegorical figures personify various virtues and vices. The figure of Truth, represented by a woman holding a mirror, looks on approvingly. Hope, depicted as a woman with an anchor, offers the prodigal son a lifeline. Repentance, symbolized by a woman trampling on Despair, encourages the son to turn away from his past mistakes. Trust, represented by a man holding a staff, offers the son support and guidance. The sun in the upper left corner of the print represents God, with the word "Deus" written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin letters. The six-line Latin captions at the bottom of the print provide additional context and meaning to the scene. This hand-coloured woodcut is part of a series of six prints, each depicting a different aspect of the prodigal son's journey. The intricate details and allegorical figures make this a powerful and moving work of art, reflecting the artistic school of the Netherlands during the 16th century.
