EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting atmosphere of a Procession on Shrove Tuesday in Amsterdam, dating back to 1681. The image showcases a vibrant scene illuminated by torchlight and accompanied by lively music. The top right corner is numbered as "250" adding an air of exclusivity to this historical moment frozen in time. The artist behind this masterpiece is Jan Luyken, whose name is mentioned on the object itself. Luyken's talent for etching and capturing intricate details shines through in this paper print, measuring approximately 169 mm in height and 131 mm in width. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to a time when traditions were celebrated with great fervor. The procession depicted here symbolizes the joyous spirit of Shrove Tuesday, also known as Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras, which marks the beginning of Lent. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also invites us to reflect on centuries-old customs that continue to shape our cultural heritage today. It reminds us of the power of art to preserve history and evoke emotions across generations
