EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 12 for Schiller's 'Intrigue and Love' by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, created in 1785, is a captivating etching from the Genealogischer Kalender aus das Jahr 1786. This masterpiece is a visual representation of a scene from Friedrich Schiller's play "Love and Intrigue" or "Don Carlos, Infante von Spanien," first published in 1784. The image depicts a dramatic moment in the play where the character Luise Miller, played by the figure on the right, is discovered kneeling before the Infante Don Carlos, portrayed by the figure on the left. Luise, who is believed to be the mother of Don Carlos's child, is caught in a compromising position, leading to a series of events that ultimately result in tragedy. The black and white etching, with its intricate detail and expressive figures, perfectly captures the intensity and emotion of the scene. The lettering at the bottom of the plate reads "Friedrich Schiller. Drama. Don Carlos, Infante von Spanien. Act III. Scene II." This artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 18th century, and a reminder of the enduring influence of European literature and art. The image has been preserved and is now on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, the creator of this stunning etching, was a prolific German artist known for his illustrations and etchings. His work was widely popular in Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries, and his contributions to the art world continue to be celebrated and appreciated today.
