EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork of Jacques Bellange, a renowned French artist from the late 16th to early 17th century. Titled "Samson Hercules" this piece exemplifies Bellange's distinctive and idiosyncratic style, which seamlessly combines courtly elegance with psychological expressiveness. Measuring at an impressive 15 5/16 x 7 1/4 inches (389 x 184 cm), this drawing captures the attention with its intricate details executed in pen, brown ink, and brush. The use of brown and gray wash adds depth and dimension to the composition. Bellange's reputation as one of the greatest late mannerist artists is well-deserved, primarily due to his surviving paintings and favored status at the ducal court in Lorraine, located in what is now northeastern France. Although many of his paintings have been lost over time, his extant prints continue to amaze art enthusiasts worldwide. "Samson Hercules" stands as a testament to Bellange's mastery of capturing both physical strength and emotional intensity within a single image. This powerful portrayal depicts Samson Hercules, two legendary figures known for their exceptional might. Through meticulous strokes and careful attention to detail, Bellange brings these characters to life on paper. Artokoloro has done justice by presenting this remarkable print from their Liszt Collection. It serves as a reminder of Bellange's artistic brilliance that continues to inspire awe centuries later.
