EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to Paris in 1893, immersing us in a world of art and entertainment. The image features "Dancing figures, Two dancing women and two harlequin" beautifully captured on paper measuring 280mm by 375mm. In the foreground, we see a few books carefully placed alongside an inkwell with a delicate feather pen. These objects hint at the intellectual pursuits that coexist with the lively dance depicted in the photograph. The inkwell symbolizes creativity and expression while the books represent knowledge and learning. The central focus of this artwork is undoubtedly the mesmerizing performance unfolding before our eyes. Two graceful women elegantly move to an unseen rhythm, their bodies fluidly intertwining as they execute intricate dance steps. Alongside them are two harlequins, known for their playful antics and acrobatic skills - both adding an element of whimsy to this enchanting scene. Jules Cheret's name is mentioned on one of these objects, suggesting his involvement or influence in creating this masterpiece. Cheret was renowned for his contributions to poster art during La Belle Époque era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, it becomes clear that it captures not only a moment frozen in time but also encapsulates the spirit of commedia dell'arte – a theatrical form characterized by masked performers embodying various stock characters such as Harlequin. This print serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and cultural heritage
