EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 17th-century etching by Jan Luyken, we are transported to a serene scene under the glow of a full moon. The print showcases an unlikely encounter between two majestic creatures - a hare and an elephant - at a peaceful water source. The hare, with its delicate frame, stands in awe next to the towering presence of the elephant. Both animals seem enchanted by the ethereal light cast upon them by the radiant full moon above. It is as if they have been drawn together by some mystical force, transcending their differences in size and species. Surrounding this enchanting duo are other trunked animals, possibly elephants like their newfound companion or even different species altogether. These gentle giants share this sacred water source with smaller rodents such as hares, creating an unexpected harmony within nature's diverse tapestry. This artwork also alludes to the concept of "spring" symbolizing not only the season but also fluids extracted from deep within the earth. Perhaps it serves as a reminder that life-giving resources can be found when we connect with our surroundings and embrace unity amidst diversity. Jan Luyken's masterful craftsmanship brings this magical moment to life on paper through his meticulous etching technique. This exquisite piece captures both our imagination and appreciation for nature's wonders while reminding us of Amsterdam's rich artistic heritage dating back centuries ago.
