EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Adam Elsheimer, a renowned German artist from the late 16th and early 17th centuries. The image captures two distinct pieces: "Saint Agnes" on one side and "Figure Studies" on the other. On the recto side, we are introduced to Saint Agnes, a Christian martyr revered for her unwavering faith and purity. Elsheimer's attention to detail is evident in this delicate pen and brown ink drawing, as he beautifully portrays Saint Agnes with grace and serenity. Her flowing robes and serene expression exude an aura of divine tranquility. Flipping over to the verso side reveals Elsheimer's exploration of figure studies. Here, he demonstrates his mastery in capturing human anatomy through various poses and gestures. Each stroke of his pen brings life to these figures, showcasing their unique characteristics while also highlighting their universal humanity. Created around 1605 in Germany during a time when religious art was highly valued, this small yet impactful piece measures just 7.6 x 7.6 cm (3 x 3 inches). Despite its size, it leaves an indelible impression on viewers with its intricate details and profound symbolism. The Liszt Collection has preserved this remarkable print as part of its extensive collection that celebrates artistic excellence throughout history. This particular work by Adam Elsheimer serves as a testament to his talent as well as a window into the rich cultural heritage of Europe during the Renaissance period.
