EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite engraving titled "The Arc of the Lord in the Temple of Dagon" by Italian artist Battista Franco. Created during the 16th century, this masterpiece captures a pivotal moment from biblical history with remarkable detail and precision. In this scene, we witness an awe-inspiring temple dedicated to Dagon, an ancient Philistine deity. The grandeur of the architecture is evident as intricate columns and arches stretch towards the heavens. At its center stands a magnificent arc, symbolizing divine power and majesty. Battista Franco's skillful engraving technique brings life to every element within this composition. From delicate textures on stone surfaces to subtle shading that adds depth and dimension, his craftsmanship is truly commendable. As viewers gaze upon this artwork, they are transported back in time to witness a significant event described in religious texts. It is believed that inside this very temple, Samson - known for his incredible strength - destroyed it by pushing against its pillars with all his might. The Liszt Collection has preserved this rare gem for art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate and admire. This print allows us to marvel at Battista Franco's talent while immersing ourselves in a momentous biblical narrative captured through meticulous engravings.
