EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "December" transports us to a mystical winter night in Leipzig, circa 1910. The illustration is part of the Festkalender publication and was created by the talented artist Hans Thoma. In this enchanting scene, we witness an old bearded man donning a flowing cape as he navigates through the mid-winter mist. The atmosphere is filled with an air of mystery and intrigue, heightened by the presence of wolves lurking in the shadows. These majestic creatures add an element of danger and wildness to the composition, evoking a sense of primal energy that resonates with our deepest instincts. As we gaze at this mesmerizing artwork, we can almost feel the biting cold on our skin and hear the eerie howls echoing through the night. The cloak worn by the central figure seems to blend seamlessly with his surroundings, creating a seamless connection between man and nature. Thoma's masterful use of color lithography brings this nocturnal scene to life, with subtle shades of blue and gray capturing both the ethereal beauty and chilling stillness of winter nights. It is a testament to his skill as an artist that even without mentioning commercial use or any specific company associated with it; this image continues to captivate viewers over a century later. In summary, "December" offers us a glimpse into a world where humans coexist harmoniously with wildlife during one of nature's most magical seasons – winter.
