The Ukobach - Unveiling the Infernal Realm
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases an intriguing illustration from the renowned Dictionnaire Infernal by Jacques Albin Simon Collin de Plancy, dating back to 1818. The artwork depicts none other than the enigmatic Ukobach, a demon of an inferior order in demonology folklore. In this haunting portrayal, the Ukobach emerges with a flaming or red body that emanates an eerie glow. Its piercing eyes and oversized ears lend it an air of both curiosity and menace. Notably, the demon is often depicted clutching a pan filled with coals or a hot poker, symbolizing its association with fire and heat. According to ancient legends, this infernal entity holds two remarkable claims to fame. Firstly, as the inventor of fireworks, it possesses an uncanny mastery over explosive displays that captivate human fascination. Secondly, it is credited as being responsible for pioneering the art of frying foods – a culinary technique that has since become ubiquitous across cultures worldwide. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image captured by French School artists from the 19th century, we are transported into a realm where darkness intertwines with creativity and innovation. The intricate details within this engraving invite us to explore deeper into occult realms while reminding us of humanity's enduring fascination with supernatural beings. Through this print from Fine Art Finder's private collection acquired through www. bridgemanart. com. , we are granted glimpses into worlds beyond our own
