Charles I 1600 1649 Anamorphosis
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable piece of art featuring Charles I of England (1600-1649). The painting, created with oil on panel, depicts an intriguing technique known as anamorphosis. At first glance, the image appears distorted and abstract, but when viewed through a loose cylindrical mirror, it magically transforms into a clear and recognizable portrait of the monarch. The artist's skillful execution is evident in every brushstroke, capturing Charles I's regal presence and commanding gaze. Standing at 41 cm (16.1 inches) in height and 50 cm (19.6 inches) in width, this artwork demands attention with its intricate details and masterful use of color. Charles I was a significant figure in English history during the turbulent years leading up to the English Civil War. His reign was marked by political conflicts between Parliament and monarchy, ultimately resulting in his execution. This painting serves as a poignant reminder of his complex legacy. As we admire this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to a time when royal power clashed with popular sovereignty. It invites us to reflect on historical events that shaped our world today while marveling at the artistic ingenuity employed to create such an extraordinary piece of work.
