EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Gluttony (Gula), Jacob Matham, Franco Estius, 1593" we are transported back in time to witness a powerful portrayal of one of the seven deadly sins. The image showcases a personification of gluttony, depicted as a female figure standing proudly within a niche. The female figure is adorned with opulent garments and exudes an air of indulgence. Her presence is commanding, drawing our attention towards the focal point - a thick pie held delicately in her hands. This symbolizes the insatiable desire for excess and overconsumption that defines gluttony. The intricate details captured by Jacob Matham and Franco Estius transport us into their artistic vision from 1593. Every line and contour adds depth to the character's expression, emphasizing her voracious appetite for pleasure. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection, we can't help but reflect on our own relationship with temptation and self-control. Gluttony serves as a reminder that balance is essential in all aspects of life. This print invites us to explore the depths of human nature through visual storytelling. It prompts introspection about our own vices while appreciating the skillful artistry employed by Matham and Estius centuries ago.
