EDITORS COMMENTS
In this etching by Sebastien Bourdon, titled "The Flight into Egypt" the artist takes us back to the 17th century with his creative and artistic interpretation of a biblical scene. The print showcases Bourdon's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of this ancient tale. The artwork depicts Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus fleeing from Bethlehem to escape King Herod's wrath. The delicate lines and intricate details bring out the beauty of their journey through a barren landscape. Bourdon's use of shading adds depth and dimension to each figure, emphasizing their expressions of concern and determination. This old yet elegant piece reflects both the cultural significance of religious narratives during that time period as well as Bourdon's mastery in etching techniques. His ability to convey emotion through his work is truly remarkable. As we gaze upon this print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time, appreciating not only its historical value but also its timeless expression of faith and resilience. It serves as a reminder that art has always been an integral part of human culture, transcending generations while preserving our shared stories for future appreciation.
