EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, Quint Lox captures the essence of Richard Houston's mezzotint reproduction of Rembrandt van Rijn's "The Burgomaster". The original artwork, created in 1760, is a testament to Houston's skill as an artist and his ability to faithfully recreate the masterful techniques employed by Rembrandt. The image depicts a distinguished figure, believed to be a prominent burgomaster from the 17th century. His commanding presence is enhanced by the use of chiaroscuro, with light and shadow expertly rendered to create depth and dimension. The intricate details in his facial features convey wisdom and authority. Houston's mezzotint technique adds another layer of richness to this already remarkable piece. The velvety texture achieved through meticulous engraving on laid paper gives the print an almost tactile quality that invites closer inspection. Quint Lox has captured every nuance of Houston's work with precision and finesse. Through careful composition and lighting, he brings out the subtle nuances in shading and texture that make this print truly come alive. This print serves as both a tribute to two great artists - Richard Houston and Rembrandt van Rijn - as well as a celebration of their shared passion for capturing human emotion through art. It is a timeless masterpiece that will continue to captivate viewers for generations to come.
