EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Mask Bald Man Tufty Sideburns Divers Masques" is a stunning piece of art that transports us back to the 17th century. The etching, created in Paris between 1635 and 1645 by an anonymous French artist, showcases a series of nineteen grotesque masks dedicated to Jean de Leins, a renowned goldsmith who served the Queen of England. The central figure in this composition is a bald man with tufty sideburns, wearing an intricate mask that exudes mystery and intrigue. Surrounding him are various other masks, each uniquely crafted with exquisite detail and imaginative designs. These masks seem to come alive as they convey different emotions - from joyous laughter to haunting sadness. The artist's skillful use of etching techniques brings out the depth and texture of these masks, making them appear almost three-dimensional on the sheet measuring approximately 2 3/8 x 1 9/16 inches (61.4 cm). The plates are numbered and arranged in various orders, adding another layer of complexity to this remarkable series. Published by Jacques van Merlen, this artwork showcases François Chauveau's mastery in capturing the essence of grotesque beauty during that era. It serves as a testament to the rich artistic heritage present in France during the Baroque period. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship involved but also provides insight into historical cultural practices surrounding masquerades and courtly celebrations.
