EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a stunning design brooch featuring Judith holding the head of Holofernes. Created between 1580 and 1600, this engraving is a true masterpiece of artistry and craftsmanship. The brooch depicts an oval scene with Judith at its center, delicately putting the severed head of Holofernes into a sack. The intricate blackwork background adds depth and drama to the composition, enhancing the emotional intensity of this biblical tale. Attributed to Johann Theodor de Bry, a renowned Netherlandish artist born in Strasbourg in 1561, this piece exemplifies his exceptional skill in capturing human emotions through detailed engravings. De Bry's work often depicted historical events or religious narratives with remarkable precision and sensitivity. Measuring approximately 2 3/4 by 3 1/8 inches (8 cm), this brooch is truly a wearable work of art. Its timeless beauty transcends centuries, making it an exquisite addition to any jewelry collection. Notably related to Jan Saenredam's drawing and Lucas van Leyden's artistic style, this particular engraving holds immense cultural significance. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of visual storytelling throughout history.
