EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection, titled "Plate 8 Battle Soldiers Boat Naked Men Trying" transports viewers to a scene of intense action and struggle. The image captures a chaotic battle unfolding on a river, with soldiers aboard a boat engaged in fierce combat against naked men attempting to climb onboard. The composition is masterfully executed through the medium of etching, showcasing intricate details and textures. Created by Pietro Santi Bartoli, an Italian artist hailing from Perugia (1615–1700) but based in Rome, this print is believed to be inspired by the works of Polidoro da Caravaggio, an influential painter born around 1543 in Messina. The dramatic tension within the artwork is palpable as soldiers valiantly defend their vessel against relentless attackers. Amidst the chaos, one can discern glimpses of bravery and desperation on both sides. Additionally, a prominent figure representing a river god adds an element of mysticism and divine intervention to this epic battle scene. Measuring at approximately 6 9/16 x 18 1/8 inches (166 x 46 cm), this print invites viewers into its world for closer examination. Its historical significance lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its portrayal of warfare during that era.
