EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print from 1489, we are transported into a world of enchantment and mysticism. The scene depicts witches transformed into animals as they soar through the night sky on their trusty broomsticks. This mesmerizing image is taken from Ulrich Molitor's De Laniis et phitonicis mulieribus, a renowned book that delves into the realm of witchcraft. The monochromatic black and white tones add an eerie ambiance to the artwork, emphasizing the occult nature of these supernatural beings. Each witch is depicted with exaggerated features in a caricature-like style, further enhancing their otherworldly presence. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the power and allure associated with magic and transformation. These witches have harnessed ancient knowledge to shapeshift into animals, defying gravity as they navigate through the air effortlessly. This image serves as a reminder that throughout history, humans have been fascinated by tales of sorcery and metamorphosis. It sparks our imagination and invites us to explore concepts beyond our everyday reality. Ann Ronan Pictures has preserved this remarkable piece of art for generations to come. Through its careful curation, it allows us to appreciate both the skillful craftsmanship behind woodcut prints and the enduring fascination with magical realms that continues to captivate audiences today.
