EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection titled "Autumn Autumnus" is a stunning depiction of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine and revelry, personifying the essence of autumn. Perched upon a billowy cloud, Bacchus exudes an air of regality as he is surrounded by three personified months carrying vines and other bountiful fruits that symbolize the season. Bacchus himself is adorned with a tiger skin draped over his body, adding an element of wildness to his divine presence. His head crowned with vine leaves and grapes further emphasizes his association with wine and abundance. In his left hand, he holds a cornucopia overflowing with harvest treasures, representing the abundant blessings bestowed upon this time of year. Part of a four-part series celebrating each season's unique beauty, this particular print captures the rich colors and vibrant energy that define autumn. Created in 1675 by Gerard de Lairesse through etching on paper, it measures 224 mm in height and 301 mm in width. Immerse yourself in the allure of fall as you gaze upon this exquisite artwork that pays homage to both nature's bounty and Bacchus' indulgent spirit. Let its intricate details transport you to a world where every leaf holds secrets whispered by the wind and every sip evokes warmth within your soul.
