Nocturnal Fishing with a Rod
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite print that transports us back to the year 1578, capturing the essence of angling under the enchanting moonlit sky. Created by renowned artists Philips Galle and Jan van der Straet, this artwork beautifully combines elements of hunting and fishing in a captivating scene. In this mesmerizing image, we witness a small river illuminated by the soft glow of Diana, the moon goddess. Luna Selene herself seems to be casting her celestial light upon a lone fisherman who stands at its edge. With his fishing rod in hand and lamp nearby, he patiently waits for his catch. The personification of night adds an ethereal touch to this nocturnal pursuit as it unveils nature's hidden treasures. The clear waters reflect both the shimmering moonlight and our fisherman's anticipation as he seeks to conquer these elusive river fish. This print not only showcases the artistry of Galle and van der Straet but also serves as a reminder of man's age-old connection with nature. It reminds us that even in ancient times, people found solace and sustenance through activities like fishing – using their skills and means to provide for themselves. Quint Lox has masterfully captured this historical masterpiece from Liszt Collection, allowing us to appreciate its beauty once again while immersing ourselves in an era long gone by.
