EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the early to mid-19th century, capturing a serene moment of respite amidst the chaos of war. The image showcases two men resting by a tranquil lake, their weary bodies finding solace in nature's embrace. The composition is masterfully executed with graphite heightened by white bodycolor on brown paper, creating an ethereal quality that enhances the sense of tranquility and introspection. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Alexandre Calame, a renowned Swiss painter born in Vevey in 1810 and tragically passing away in Menton at the age of 54. On closer inspection, we notice that this artwork has another side – verso – which reveals additional studies of soldiers mounted on horseback. This dual perspective adds depth and complexity to our understanding of Calame's artistic process and his exploration of contrasting themes such as rest versus action. Measuring approximately 11 11/16 x 15 3/16 inches (297 x 386 cm), these drawings exemplify Calame's exceptional attention to detail and his ability to capture both natural landscapes and human emotions with equal finesse. As we gaze upon this evocative print, we are transported into a world where time seems suspended, allowing us to reflect on the profound impact that war has on individuals' lives while also appreciating moments of peace found amidst its turmoil.
