EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Hans Burgkmair depicts "Lust: one of the seven deadly sins" showcasing the artist's exceptional talent and attention to detail. The print, part of a private collection, is a reproduction from the late 16th century and was originally created for Georg Hirth's Kulturgeschichtliches Bilderbuch aus drei Jahrhunderten in 1881-90. The image portrays a man and woman dressed in elaborate costumes, representing the sin of lust. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of the 16th century, adding historical significance to this artwork. As cardinal sins hold great religious importance, this engraving offers viewers an insight into Christian morality during that time period. Burgkmair's skillful execution brings out every intricate line and texture in this piece. The digitally cleaned image ensures that its beauty remains intact for contemporary audiences to appreciate. Through this artwork, we are reminded of humanity's struggle with temptation and our innate desires. Lust is just one among many vices that have plagued mankind throughout history.
