EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to an era of maritime exploration and adventure. The anonymous historical figure portrayed is an officer at sea, his stoic expression hinting at a wealth of experience and knowledge. The officer stands confidently, depicted in half-length with his head and face dominating the composition. In his left hand, he holds a pair of binoculars, symbolizing his keen observation skills and readiness for any challenge that may arise on the open waters. His right hand grasps a map displaying a detailed coastline with various mouths marked upon it. Behind him rests a table adorned with additional tools of navigation - a telescope and marine charts - emphasizing the officer's role as both protector and guide on these treacherous seas. His attire speaks to both practicality and style; he wears a thick jacket with folded sleeves, ensuring warmth amidst unpredictable weather conditions. Underneath, he dons a cardigan layered over a high-closing light blouse with elegant sleeves, showcasing attention to detail even in matters of fashion. Painted by John Greenwood in 1760 using canvas and oil paint, this masterpiece measures 81.5 cm by 63 cm by 3.5 cm (90 cm by 71.5 cm by 10 cm including frame). It serves as an enduring tribute to those brave individuals who dedicated their lives to exploring uncharted territories across vast oceans.
