EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to a bustling cityscape with a drawbridge over a serene canal. The scene is filled with intricate details that bring the 17th century to life. In the foreground, two millstones stand as silent witnesses to the daily activities taking place around them. An angler sits peacefully on the quay wall, patiently waiting for his next catch. On the right side of the image, a distinguished gentleman stands alongside his loyal dog at the corner column of an elegant building. Their presence adds a touch of sophistication and charm to this vibrant city scene. As we gaze further into this snapshot of history, we notice a man pushing a wheelbarrow as he crosses over the drawbridge. His purposeful stride suggests that he has important tasks ahead. A delightful surprise awaits us on the left-hand side of one bridge pier - an intricately painted fish or whale captures our attention and sparks our imagination about what lies beneath these calm waters. Jan van der Heyden's masterful brushstrokes have beautifully captured every detail in this panel painting using oil paint. With dimensions measuring h 36 cm x w 44.5 cm x d 6.3 cm, this artwork invites us to step into its world and immerse ourselves in its rich history and timeless beauty.
