EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Falcon Plucks out Eyes Falconer Bearing False Witness" by Artokoloro. Dating back to the 18th century and attributed to Egypt or Syria, this piece is an exquisite example of ink and opaque watercolor on paper. The composition depicts a dramatic scene where a nobleman, accompanied by his wife, finds himself at the mercy of a falcon. The falconer, who was meant to be their trusted witness, stands helplessly as the majestic bird plucks out his eyes. This powerful imagery symbolizes betrayal and deceit in its most visceral form. With its origins possibly rooted in the ancient folio "Kalila wa Dimna" this artwork carries deep cultural significance. Its large dimensions of 125 cm high and 887 cm wide make it an impressive sight that demands attention and contemplation. Artokoloro's masterful execution brings every detail to life with precision and finesse. The intricate brushwork captures the intensity of emotions portrayed on each character's face while maintaining a sense of harmony within the overall composition. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print, we are transported back in time to witness this tragic tale unfold before our eyes. It serves as a reminder that even those closest to us can betray our trust, leaving us vulnerable like the falconer bearing false witness.
