EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Witches Sabbath 1510 Chiaroscuro woodcut two blocks" by Hans Baldung, also known as Hans Baldung Grien. The German artist, born in Strasbourg in 1484 or 1485 and passing away in 1545, produced this exceptional work during his time as a journeyman. The image depicts a scene of witches gathering for their mysterious midnight ritual. Executed using the technique of chiaroscuro woodcut with two blocks, the print is rendered primarily in shades of gray and black, creating a striking contrast between light and shadow. The sheet measures an impressive 14 x 15-16 inches (10-5/16 x 379 cm), allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully into the intricate details of Baldung's composition. Considered one of his best works, "Witches Sabbath" exemplifies Baldung's mastery of German chiaroscuro woodcuts. Its haunting imagery and meticulous execution showcase his skillful manipulation of light and dark to create depth and atmosphere. Originally from Strasbourg, Baldung later moved to Nuremberg where he continued to produce remarkable prints like this one. This particular piece was printed soon after its creation in 1510 and has since become highly regarded within art circles. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print today, we are transported back to the early sixteenth century when witchcraft held both fascination and fear for society—a testament to Baldung's enduring artistic legacy
