EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Church St Severin Cologne Imaginary Setting" takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Cologne. The artwork, created by Jan van der Heyden between 1660 and 1672, presents a fantasized cityscape where the Church of St Severin is beautifully captured within an imaginary setting. The scene unfolds just outside the protective walls of the city, offering a glimpse into everyday life during that era. In the center, we are drawn to a magnificent city gate that stands as a symbol of grandeur and entrance into this bustling metropolis. As our eyes wander towards the bottom center, we witness an act of kindness as a gentleman generously gives alms to a begging woman. This small gesture reminds us of compassion amidst the vibrant energy surrounding them. Van der Heyden's masterful use of oil paint on panel brings depth and richness to every detail in this composition. The colors are carefully chosen, evoking both warmth and nostalgia as they transport us back centuries ago. As we admire this piece from Liszt Collection, it invites us to imagine ourselves strolling through these ancient streets filled with history and charm. It serves as a reminder that art has the power not only to capture moments frozen in time but also to ignite our imagination and transport us beyond what meets the eye.
