EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Gathering Twigs" by Simon Bening takes us back to 16th century Bruges, Belgium. Created around 1550, this exquisite piece showcases Bening's mastery of tempera colors and gold paint on parchment. In this miniature artwork measuring just 5.6 x 9.6 cm, we are transported into a serene scene of nature's simplicity. The composition centers around a figure delicately gathering twigs in what appears to be a lush forest setting. The attention to detail is remarkable as every stroke of color and texture brings the image to life. Bening, a Flemish artist born in 1483, was renowned for his exceptional skill in illuminating manuscripts during the Northern Renaissance period. His ability to capture intricate details with such precision is evident in this tiny masterpiece. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we can almost feel the crispness of the air and hear the rustling leaves beneath our feet. It serves as a reminder that beauty can be found even in the simplest acts of daily life. The Liszt Collection has once again curated an extraordinary piece that allows us to appreciate artistry from centuries past. This print invites us to immerse ourselves in history and marvel at Simon Bening's talent for capturing fleeting moments with timeless grace.
