EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Chastity overcomes Love" is a part of the mesmerizing series called "Seven Virtues, Seven Vices". In this particular artwork, we witness the personification of Chastity, known as Castitas, seated beneath a majestic tree. With grace and strength, she triumphs over Amor, the god of love. Castitas fearlessly tramples upon Amor and forcefully breaks his bow into two pieces. This exquisite engraving carries a Latin caption that adds an air of mystery to the piece. The entire series revolves around virtues battling against vices, with each virtue conquering or suppressing its corresponding vice. Here we see Castita valiantly fighting against love's temptations and desires. The artist attributed to this masterpiece is Pieter Jalhea Furnius or someone from his workshop between 1550 and 1625. The intricate details in this paper engraving are truly remarkable; it measures approximately 262 mm in height and 197 mm in width. As you gaze upon this thought-provoking image, let your imagination wander through the depths of human nature and contemplate how chastity can overcome even the most powerful force - love itself. This extraordinary artwork serves as a reminder that inner strength can conquer all obstacles on our path towards moral integrity and purity.
