EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the ethereal beauty of Saint Cecilia at the organ, surrounded by a chorus of singing angels. The scene comes alive as three heavenly beings present sheet music composed by Cornelis Schuyt, adding to the enchanting atmosphere. In the background, we catch a glimpse of another room, hinting at an even grander musical spectacle. An angel delicately places a crown upon Saint Cecilia's head while another bestows this honor upon a female saint beside her. This symbolic act signifies their divine connection and recognition as patrons of music. Below this mesmerizing image, we find a Latin verse penned by Cornelis Duyn that further elevates the spiritual significance of this portrayal. The print emphasizes not only Saint Cecilia's role in inspiring and guiding musicians but also highlights the celestial harmony created through angelic voices and instrumental melodies. It serves as a testament to the power of music in transcending earthly boundaries and connecting humanity with higher realms. Created around 1593 in Leiden, this paper engraving measures approximately 325 mm in height and 408 mm in width. Its meticulous details bring forth every nuance of emotion conveyed by each figure depicted within it
