EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "A childbirth (xylography, 1531)", takes us back in time to witness the miracle of life. Created by the German School in the 16th century, this xylograph depicts a momentous event with great attention to detail. In this scene, we see a pregnant woman surrounded by two skilled midwives who are assisting her during labor. The intensity on their faces reflects the gravity of the situation as they work together to bring new life into the world. The engraving beautifully captures both the physical and emotional aspects of childbirth. The artist, Luisa Ricciarini, has masterfully recreated an illustration from "Der swangern frawen und hebammen Rosengarten", a book published in Hagenau in 1531. Through her meticulous craftsmanship, she pays homage to Konrad Merkel's original work while adding her own unique touch. This print not only showcases historical medical practices but also highlights women at work during a time when their contributions were often overlooked. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of healthcare and gender equality. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, let us appreciate the strength and resilience displayed by all those involved in bringing forth new life throughout history.
