EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Liber Studiorum Plate 6 Judgment Midas" by John Sell Cotman, a renowned British artist from the late 18th to early 19th century. The image is a softground etching, part of a bound volume containing an impressive collection of 48 plates. The composition measures approximately 32 x 49.6 cm (12 5/8 x 19 1/2 in. ), with the platemark measuring about 19.8 x 25.2 cm (7 13/16 x9 15/16 in. ). The artwork depicts the mythical story of King Midas and his fateful encounter with Apollo. Cotman's masterful technique brings this ancient tale to life, capturing the moment when Midas foolishly judges against Apollo's musical talents in favor of Pan's rustic melodies. As punishment for his misguided decision, Apollo grants Midas donkey ears as a permanent reminder of his folly. The print exudes an air of mystery and intrigue through its intricate details and skillful use of light and shadow. Cotman's expertise shines through in every stroke, creating depth and texture that draw viewers into the narrative. This remarkable piece is not only visually stunning but also serves as a testament to Cotman's artistic prowess and ability to breathe new life into classical stories. It stands as a timeless representation of mythology captured on paper—a true gem within the Liszt Collection that will undoubtedly captivate art enthusiasts for generations
