EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment from the timeless tale of Odysseus and Nausicaa. In this scene, we witness the vulnerable yet heroic figure of almost naked Odysseus emerging from the bushes after surviving a treacherous shipwreck. Nausicaa, accompanied by her maidservants, had come to the beach to wash clothes when they stumble upon this unexpected encounter. The composition is rich with symbolism and detail. A maid delicately carries a bowl of luscious fruits, perhaps representing abundance and hospitality. At the bottom left corner, a barking dog adds an element of surprise and excitement to this fateful meeting. Joachim von Sandrart masterfully brings this ancient story to life through his use of oil paint on canvas. The dimensions of 103.5 cm in height, 168.5 cm in width, and 4.0 cm in thickness allow for an immersive viewing experience that transports us back to that distant era. As we gaze at this artwork from the Liszt Collection, we cannot help but be captivated by the expressions on Nausicaa's face as she encounters Ulysses' unexpected presence. Her companions are equally startled at the sight before them. This print serves as a reminder of our fascination with mythology and its ability to transcend time and culture while igniting our imagination with tales of adventure, love, and resilience.
