EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the early mid-19th century, capturing a mesmerizing landscape that is both serene and haunting. Titled "Broken Tree Mountainous Landscape" this graphite drawing by Alexandre Calame showcases his exceptional talent in depicting nature's raw beauty. The scene unfolds before our eyes with majestic mountains dominating the horizon, their peaks shrouded in mist. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every crevice and contour of these rugged formations to life. Amidst this grandeur stands a broken tree, its branches reaching out like skeletal fingers against the vastness of the landscape. Calame's use of graphite adds depth and texture to the composition, enhancing its dramatic atmosphere. The subtle play between light and shadow creates an ethereal quality that captivates viewers' imagination. Born in Vevey, Switzerland, Calame was renowned for his ability to capture landscapes with unparalleled precision. His works often evoke a sense of melancholy while celebrating nature's power and resilience. Measuring 11 7/8 x 15 15/16 inches (302 x 405 cm), this drawing invites us into a world where time seems suspended; it beckons us to reflect on our own place within nature's grand design. With Menton as its backdrop - a picturesque town nestled along France's Mediterranean coast - this artwork serves as a testament not only to Calame's skill but also to the enduring allure of mountainous landscapes throughout history.
