The Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins, ca. 1560-63
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print created by Philip Galle. This 16th-century allegorical masterpiece depicts a scene from daily life in Flanders, showcasing the contrast between wisdom and foolishness. In this engraving, we witness a chore-filled household where women engage in various domestic tasks. The closed doors symbolize the separation between heaven and earth, while an angel stands guard as a reminder of divine judgment. The central focus lies on ten female figures divided into two groups: the wise virgins on the left and the foolish ones on the right. The wise virgins are depicted as diligent dancers who remain focused on their task at hand – preparing for marriage with oil lamps lit to welcome their bridegroom. On the other side, distracted by mundane activities such as chatting or fixing their appearances, stand the foolish virgins whose lamps have gone out due to neglect. Their lack of preparedness serves as a cautionary tale about being unwise in one's choices. Philip Galle's meticulous attention to detail brings this parable to life through intricate engravings that capture both physical actions and emotional expressions. This artwork not only showcases his artistic skill but also serves as a visual representation of moral lessons passed down through generations. As we gaze upon this historical print, we are reminded of our own choices in life – whether we choose wisdom or folly – urging us to reflect upon our actions and strive for preparedness when faced with important decisions.
