EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of artistry from the 18th century - the David Garrick Miniature: Tassie Glass Paste Portrait Medallion. Created by James Tassie, a renowned British sculptor and modeller, this exquisite medallion is a testament to his exceptional talent. The medallion features a finely chiseled portrait of David Garrick, one of the most celebrated actors of his time. The intricate details captured in glass paste are truly awe-inspiring, showcasing Tassie's mastery over his craft. The spine of the accompanying book bears an inscription that reads "GARRICK STRAT. [IUEILEE. ] [NCO] | T[ADLELOUHHT] PINXIT" indicating both the subject and artist involved in creating this masterpiece. What makes this particular piece even more fascinating is its historical significance. Dated back to 1780, it provides us with a glimpse into London's artistic scene during the 18th century. With its origins in Glasgow and later finding its way to Southwark, this medallion has traveled through time to become an invaluable artifact. As we admire this print from the Liszt Collection, we can't help but marvel at James Tassie's skillful craftsmanship and attention to detail. This miniature portrait serves as a timeless tribute to David Garrick's legacy as well as an enduring symbol of artistic excellence from centuries past.
