EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Jan Luyken, we are transported to a serene beach scene where the eye is immediately drawn to a smoking lighthouse. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully captures the essence of the moment. A man stands prominently in the foreground, his arm outstretched as he points towards the billowing smoke rising from the lighthouse. The juxtaposition of calmness and chaos creates an intriguing narrative within this artwork. The peacefulness of the beach and its gentle waves crashing against the shore contrasts with the intense energy emanating from the smoking lighthouse. It leaves us wondering what might have caused such turmoil in this otherwise tranquil setting. Luyken's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to this composition. The warm hues of sunset cast a soft glow over everything, creating a sense of tranquility despite the dramatic events unfolding before our eyes. This print, created in 1711 by Pieter Arentsz & Cornelis van der Sys II based on Luyken's original work, serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst serenity, unexpected challenges can arise. Quint Lox has expertly preserved this piece from Liszt Collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate its beauty and contemplate its underlying message.
