EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the Liszt Collection titled "Allegory Rising Sun Naked Man Wearing Shroud" is a thought-provoking piece that invites viewers to delve into its symbolic meaning. Created by Giulio Bonasone, an Italian artist active in Rome and Bologna during the 16th century, this print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing intricate details. At first glance, we are drawn to the central figure of a naked man wearing a shroud. His vulnerable state suggests mortality and introspection, while the shroud symbolizes death or rebirth. Accompanying him is Father Time, depicted as an aged figure with flowing white hair and beard. This personification of time adds depth to the allegory, reminding us of life's transient nature. The rising sun in the background signifies hope and new beginnings. Its warm rays illuminate the scene, casting shadows on two majestic horses gracefully drawn beside our protagonist. These horses represent strength and power but also serve as reminders of life's duality - light versus darkness. Bonasone's meticulous craftsmanship is evident in every line etched onto this 1531-1576 engraving. The sheet measures approximately 9 3/4 x 13 3/8 inches (248 x 34 cm), showcasing his attention to detail within limited space. As we gaze upon this print from Artokoloro within the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to reflect on our own mortality and contemplate life's fleeting moments
