EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable engraving titled "Empedocles standing frontally head turned three-quarter view". The image depicts Empedocles, an ancient Greek philosopher, directing his gaze towards a mesmerizing flame emerging from the crater of Mount Aetna. The composition is beautifully balanced with a horizontal ground line that provides stability to the scene. Empedocles is portrayed in a powerful stance, standing frontally but with his head turned slightly in a three-quarter view. His walking stick leans against the right margin, adding depth and dimension to the artwork. Created by René Boyvin, a talented French artist from Angers around 1545-1563, this engraving captures the essence of Empedocles' wisdom and mystique. It pays homage to Rosso Fiorentino's original work while infusing it with Boyvin's unique style. Measuring approximately 10 7/16 x 6 1/2 inches (26.5 x 16.5 cm), this print transports viewers back in time to witness one of history's greatest thinkers contemplating nature's forces atop Mount Aetna.
