EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Justitia (Justice) from Los Honores, Flanders, 1525/32". Created by unknown artists, this masterpiece is believed to be based on a design by Bernard van Orley. The top left corner and center of the lower section were possibly produced at Pieter van Aelst's workshop, adding another layer of artistic collaboration. The image portrays an allegorical figure representing Justice in all her glory. Clad in intricate armor and adorned with garlands of flowers and fruits, she exudes dignity and power. Her flowing robes are made from animal hides, symbolizing her connection to nature's laws. In one hand, she holds a blade signifying her authority to pass judgment impartially. Kneeling before Justice is a man dressed in traditional clothing, perhaps representing Abraham or Emperor Nero himself. This interaction between deity and mortal highlights the concept of justice being bestowed upon all individuals regardless of their status or background. The vibrant colors used in this piece bring life to every detail - from the delicate fabric patterns to the leopard skin draped over Justice's shoulder. The artist skillfully captures both classical influences such as Jove (Jupiter) from Greek mythology and biblical references like Genesis. Preserved within the Art Institute Chicago gallery collection, this remarkable work exemplifies Flemish artistry during the 16th century. Its rich heritage adds depth to any interior decoration while serving as a reminder that justice transcends time and culture.
