Bird with Letter
BIRD WITH LETTER From the Tryptichon "The Temptation of
Saint Anthony"The inscription on this note in the beak of this
birdlike monster on skates could throw a light on the
contemplated symbolism. Unfortunately, this text, which is
difficult to read, is open to various interpretations, but none of
them are proven to be accurate. The postman-like freak is
perhaps delivering a letter to the conspiring figures in the hole
under the bridge. The funnel on this curious bird’s head gives
him a preposterous appearance. This headwear is referred to
elsewhere as wisdom or absent-mindedness, but that
symbolism seems unsuitable here.
Height: 11,5 cmHIERONYMUS BOSCH (1450 - 1516)THE
TEMPATION OF SAINT ANTHONY Saint Anthony won a lot of
praise in Hiëronymus Bosch's heyday. He resisted diabolical
temptations, in sharp contrast with the ordinary mortals, as this
triptych portrays in splendid colours. The closed panels show
the arrest and crucifixion of Jesus.
