Morbetto (The Plague in Phrygia), Marcantonio Raimondi, No earlier than 1520, Graphic Art, Copper Engraving, This is morbid. In the foreground there lies a dead woman with a child. There is an acrid smell. The man is holding his nose as he tries to push the child away. If it is to live, this child must not drink its mother’s milk. But this is a situation full of contradictions in that the child will also find it difficult to survive without. A divine light is flooding into the otherwise dark room through the window on the left. If you have faith, there is hope. But the scene is one of contrasts., Paper, Color, Printer's ink, Copper engraving, Printet, Height (plate size) 198 mm, Height (paper size) 396 mm, Width (plate size) 250 mm, Width (paper size) 445 mm, EFFIGIES SACRAE DIVOM PHRIGI, LINQVEBANT, DVLCES ANI, MAS, AVT AE, GRA TRAHE, BANT, CORP, INV.
