EDITORS COMMENTS
Emblem 9, "Lock the tree and the old man in a house full of dew, and whoever eats its fruit will be rejuvenated," is a captivating piece by Matthäus Merian, the Elder. This intricate engraving watercolour combines elements of alchemy, astrology, and mythology to create a mysterious and thought-provoking image.
The central figure of an old man standing next to a tree locked inside a house full of dew immediately draws the viewer's attention. The symbolism behind this scene suggests that consuming the fruit from this enchanted tree will bring about rejuvenation or transformation. It speaks to themes of renewal, regeneration, and the eternal cycle of life.
Merian's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this work - from the delicate engravings on the tree trunk to the swirling patterns in the background. The use of watercolour adds depth and richness to the overall composition, creating a sense of otherworldly beauty.
Emblem 9 is not just a visual masterpiece; it also serves as a window into history, exploring concepts related to alchemy and occultism that were prevalent during Merian's time. This print invites viewers to ponder its deeper meanings while marveling at its exquisite craftsmanship.
