New Years Greeting with Three Witches, 1514
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Baldung, Hans is a captivating print that transports us back to the Renaissance era in Germany. This intriguing artwork, found in the collection of the Albertina in Vienna, delves into themes of sin, witchcraft, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. In this scene, three enchanting witches gather around a feast table on Christmas Eve. The artist's meticulous pen and brush strokes bring these mystical figures to life as they engage in dark rituals and revelry. Their presence evokes both fascination and fear as they embody the embodiment of evil forces. Baldung skillfully uses allegory and mythology to create an intricate narrative within this piece. The witches symbolize temptation and moral corruption while also serving as cautionary figures for those who stray from righteousness. As we enter a new year filled with hope and resolutions for self-improvement, this print serves as a reminder of our own vulnerabilities to succumb to wickedness. The use of grey and brown ink combined with white color on paper adds depth to the composition while enhancing its eerie atmosphere. Through his masterful technique, Baldung captures not only our attention but also our imagination. This fine art image invites contemplation about morality, spirituality, and human nature itself. It stands as a testament to Baldung's talent for creating thought-provoking works that transcend time.
