A Chimerical Procession: Invention, Emulation, and the Language of Witchcraft in 'Lo stregozzo'
Around the mid 1520s, Marcantonio Raimondi or Agostino Veneziano engraved a large print depicting a fanciful parade of the witch and her entourage. This engraving, known as Lo stregozzo, has been studied in terms of attribution, iconography, textual and visual sources, and in relation to early modern witch beliefs. An associational and metaphoric reading opens new possibilities for contextualizing the print. The chimera and the hovering man strategically located beneath the witch – while not easily explained in iconographical terms –are deployed as a means of thinking about the early modern conception of witchcraft and the artistic process of creating this print. In one sense, they raise theoretical and practical problems concerning artistic imitation and invention. The chimera provides an incentive to reflect on combinatory fantasy and visual eclecticism, and the hovering man demonstrates a sophisticated emulation of Michelangelo’s God in the Sistine Chapel. In another sense, they define witchcraft as a subverted world governed by inversion, heresy, and monstrosity. The hovering man, in his body position, inferiority to the witch, and allusion to the Sistine God, signifies inversion and heresy. The chimera sparks discussion over expressions of heterogeneity, mixture, and monstrosity in the witchcraft domain and produces a chain of analogies to the witch from etymological, somatic, and auditory dimensions.
Sick artists
She was a skilled warrior and believed she could overcome any obstacle in her path. Undeterred by the warnings of the curse, she pressed on, convinced that she could defy fate and claim the treasure for herself. As Amelia ventured deeper into the frozen tundra, she encountered various challenges and dangers. She battled mythical creatures, traversed treacherous terrain, and faced harsh weather conditions. But she pressed on, fueled by her determination to obtain the frigid treasure. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Amelia reached her destination. She stood before the ancient temple that housed the coveted artifact. As she stepped inside, the air grew colder, and the room began to shimmer with an ethereal glow. Ignoring the signs of danger, Amelia approached the frigid treasure and reached out to touch it. As her fingers brushed against the icy surface, a surge of power coursed through her veins. She could feel the chill spreading throughout her body, turning her skin pale and her breath shallow. Unbeknownst to her, the curse had taken hold. From that day forward, Amelia's life took a turn for the worse. She faced immense hardship and tragedy at every corner. Her loved ones perished, her health deteriorated, and her mind became consumed with darkness. The power and immortality promised by the frigid treasure had become a curse that she could never escape. Amelia soon realized that the frigid treasure brought not only eternal life but also eternal misery. She had been blinded by her desire for power and overlooked the warnings and tales of those who had come before her. Now, she was destined to wander the land, a shattered soul forever haunted by the curse of the frigid treasure. The tale of the curse of the frigid treasure serves as a cautionary reminder of the dangers of unchecked ambition and the consequences of selfish desires. It teaches us the importance of heeding the wisdom of those who came before us and considering the potential consequences of our actions. In the end, true wealth and fulfillment come from within, not from material possessions or magical artifacts..
