EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Piety, Willem Isaacsz. van Swanenburg, Petrus Scriverius, Johannes Janssonius, 1610" we are transported back in time to witness a powerful scene of devotion and virtue. At the center of the composition sits a woman personifying piety, her head adorned with a radiant halo symbolizing her holiness. Resting on her lap are stone tablets bearing the Ten Commandments, representing moral guidance and divine law. In one hand she holds a palm branch as a sign of victory over sin and temptation. Surrounding her are books that signify knowledge and wisdom. A cherubic putto hovers above her head, presenting a laurel wreath as an emblem of honor and achievement. However, at her foot lies trampled money in a bag - an allegorical representation of material wealth being disregarded in favor of spiritual riches. The Latin text accompanying the image further emphasizes the importance of virtue in general. The meticulous details captured by Willem Isaacsz. van Swanenburg bring life to this profound depiction from 1610. This remarkable artwork from the Liszt Collection serves as both an aesthetic delight and an invitation for contemplation on matters beyond our earthly existence. Quint Lox's careful preservation ensures that this piece continues to inspire viewers with its timeless message about devotion and righteousness.
