EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Fencing School of the University of Leiden in 1610. The image, skillfully captured by Quint Lox from Liszt Collection, transports us back to a time when fencing was not only a sport but an art form. The scene unfolds within the walls of this prestigious university, where students gather for their fencing lessons. The room is adorned with intricate geometric patterns on the floor, adding an air of elegance and sophistication to the space. A group of young scholars can be seen engrossed in their exercises, their focus evident as they engage in swordplay under the watchful eye of their instructor. Intriguingly, amidst all this action stands an acrobat performing daring feats on horseback. This unexpected addition adds a touch of excitement and spectacle to an otherwise disciplined setting. It serves as a reminder that even within academia, there is room for creativity and entertainment. The photograph also highlights a book titled "Fencing" by Meursius placed prominently on a screen nearby. This suggests that these students are not merely engaging in physical exercise but are also avid learners seeking knowledge about this noble art form. Overall, Quint Lox's masterful capture allows us to step into history and witness firsthand the dedication and passion exhibited by these young fencers at one of Europe's most esteemed universities.
