EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The Registrar is attacked by four men dressed as devils" we are transported back to the year 1699, witnessing a dramatic scene unfold. The image, captured by renowned artists Caspar Luyken and Jan Claesz ten Hoorn, depicts an intense confrontation between a group of disguised men and an unsuspecting registrar. Dressed in devilish costumes, these mysterious figures have ambushed the registrar under the cover of darkness. Armed with whips, they relentlessly beat him while he lies defenseless on a bed. The chaotic atmosphere suggests that this attack was carefully planned and executed with malicious intent. As we delve deeper into the composition, our attention is drawn to a woman standing nearby who seems both shocked and frightened by the unfolding events. Her presence adds another layer of intrigue to this already enigmatic tableau. This thought-provoking artwork brings to mind themes of disguise, deception, and power dynamics within society. It evokes questions about identity and hidden motives as we witness these demons mercilessly overpowering their victim. "The Registrar is attacked by four men dressed as devils" serves as a powerful reminder that even those entrusted with authority can fall prey to unexpected dangers lurking in the shadows. Quint Lox's masterful curation of this piece from Liszt Collection allows us to explore Francisco de Quevedo's work through visual storytelling at its finest.
