EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite 1555 engraving titled "Lot Family Fleeing Sodom Story". Created by the talented German artist Heinrich Aldegrever, this artwork measures approximately 4 1/2 by 3 1/8 inches (11.4 by 8 cm). The print depicts a pivotal moment from the biblical story of Lot and his family fleeing the doomed city of Sodom. Intriguingly, the composition centers around an angel leading Lot's family out of the city, with his wife and two daughters closely following behind. The gates of Sodom serve as a backdrop to this dramatic scene. This powerful image is based on Genesis 19:16 in which God commands Lot to leave the sinful city before its destruction. Part of a series consisting of four engravings, this particular piece captures both the intensity and urgency felt by Lot's family as they escape impending doom. Aldegrever's attention to detail and skillful execution bring life to this ancient narrative, making it resonate even after centuries have passed. The Liszt Collection proudly presents this remarkable print that not only serves as a visual delight but also offers viewers an opportunity for reflection on themes such as faith, obedience, and divine intervention. Whether displayed in homes or galleries, this engraving is sure to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and profound storytelling ability.
