EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a mesmerizing scene from the early 15th century artwork, "Allegory of the Liberal Arts: Logic and Grammar". In this intriguing composition, we see a seated woman holding a snake in each hand, surrounded by two bearded men who appear to be philosophers engrossed in their books. The symbolism is rich as these figures represent the profound connection between knowledge and wisdom. At the lower right corner of the image, another woman holds her breast while a young man, possibly a monk, clutches onto a book. This juxtaposition suggests that education and intellectual pursuits are intimately linked with nurturing and growth. The drawing itself was created using chalk on paper and can be found in the Ambrosian Library in Milan, Italy. It is part of Bernhard Degenhart's renowned collection titled "Europaische Handzeichnungen" which showcases five hundred years of European drawings. This black-and-white print not only transports us back to the fifteenth century but also serves as an ode to human intellect throughout history. The intricate details captured through silverpoint ink highlight every stroke made by Stefano di Giovanni da Verona (also known as Stefano da Verona), emphasizing his skillful craftsmanship. Overall, this image invites viewers into an allegorical world where logic intertwines with grammar and where art becomes an embodiment of knowledge itself.
