EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases Plate 29 of "Civilis Floods Land Defensively Breaking" an etching created by Antonio Tempesta in 1611. The artwork depicts a dramatic scene of war between the Romans and the Batavians, as they battle over control of land during a flood. The intricate details and skillful technique employed by Tempesta are evident in every stroke, bringing this historical event to life. In this first state issue, we witness the sheer power of nature as it collides with human conflict. The dikes that once protected the land now crumble under the force of rushing water, while soldiers on both sides fight fiercely amidst chaos and destruction. This print serves as a reminder of mankind's struggle against natural disasters and its relentless pursuit for dominance. Tempesta's collaboration with Otto van Veen is apparent in his ability to capture emotion and movement within each character depicted. From Roman soldiers desperately defending their territory to Batavian warriors determined to claim their rightful land, every figure tells a story. Measuring at 6 5/16 x 8 1/16 inches (16 x 20.5 cm), this print offers viewers an intimate glimpse into history through artistry. Its presence evokes contemplation about our own relationship with nature and how it shapes our conflicts throughout time.
