EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Pleading for unity and reconciliation, 1623" captured by Jan van de Velde II, Jan Jansz Starter, and Jan Amelisz, we are transported back to a significant moment in history. The image portrays the desperate plea for agreement and harmony during a time of religious discord and political unrest in the Dutch reign of Maurice. The composition is rich with symbolism as putti carry burnt books representing the destruction caused by hatred and envy. A male figure sits on a throne while Christ watches over him, emphasizing the importance of divine guidance in achieving unity. Remonstrant contingencies are depicted alongside orange figures like Johan van Barneveld, highlighting their role in calling for reconciliation. The significance of this artwork lies not only in its historical context but also in its timeless message of peace and concordia insuperabile. It serves as a reminder that despite our differences, it is through dialogue and understanding that we can overcome divisions. Quint Lox's skillful capture allows us to appreciate the intricate details within this print - from the expressions on each face to the delicate brushstrokes that bring life to every element. This artwork serves as an enduring testament to humanity's longing for unity amidst challenging times.
