EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to 1711 as we witness a Seated Carthusian Holding Open Book. The oil paint on paper has been skillfully varnished, preserving its timeless beauty for centuries. The focal point of the image is the enigmatic figure of the seated Carthusian monk. With an air of tranquility and introspection, he holds an open book in his hands, inviting us to ponder over the wisdom contained within its pages. His serene expression hints at a deep connection with spirituality and knowledge. Created by Jean Restout le Jeune, a renowned French artist hailing from Rouen (1692–1768), this masterpiece showcases his exceptional talent in capturing human emotions and intricate details. From every stroke of brush to each delicate line drawn, Restout's expertise shines through. Measuring 11 7/16 x 8 5/8 inches (29.1 x 21.9 cm), this artwork transports us into a world where time seems suspended. The use of oil paint adds depth and richness to the colors while enhancing the texture of the paper. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece by Artokoloro, we cannot help but be captivated by its profound message and artistic brilliance. It serves as a testament to humanity's eternal quest for knowledge and spiritual enlightenment – an enduring reminder that art has the power to transcend time itself.
