EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases "Worship of the Golden Calf, Registrum huius operis libri cronicarum cu, m, figuris et ymagi, nibus ab inicio mundi" by Pleydenwurff and Schedel. Created in 1493 using woodcut and letterpress techniques, this artwork beautifully captures a significant biblical scene. The image depicts a chaotic gathering of people engrossed in worshiping a golden calf. The intricate details of their expressions and gestures convey both awe and devotion towards this false idol. The composition is filled with symbolism as it represents the story from Exodus where Moses receives the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai while his people turn to idolatry. The craftsmanship exhibited in this print is truly remarkable. Each line carved into the woodblock adds depth and texture to every figure present. The delicate balance between light and shadow creates an atmosphere that enhances the dramatic nature of this momentous event. With its historical significance and artistic excellence, this print serves as a window into medieval religious practices and storytelling through visual art. It reminds us of humanity's eternal struggle between faithfulness to higher principles versus succumbing to worldly temptations. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within your personal collection, this print offers an opportunity for reflection on our own beliefs and values while appreciating the skillful craftsmanship that brings history alive before our eyes.
