EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases an intriguing allegory of sickness. The image depicts a man lying prostrate on a bed, surrounded by enigmatic figures. Created in approximately 1540, this engraving captures the essence of human vulnerability and suffering. The composition is meticulously detailed, with each figure exuding a sense of concern and compassion towards the sick man. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the somber mood that permeates throughout. Measuring at approximately 11 3/4 x 8 7/16 inches (298 x 214 cm), this state sheet has been expertly trimmed within its platemark for optimal presentation. Engraved by Giorgio Ghisi, an Italian artist hailing from Mantua (ca. 1520-1582), this print pays homage to Giulio Romano's original work in Rome (1499-1546). The emotional impact of this artwork is undeniable as it invites viewers to reflect on their own mortality and frailty in the face of illness. It serves as a poignant reminder that even during times of distress, there are those who surround us with care and support.
