EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a small birdshow from Basel, captured in the southwest region. The drawing was created between 1615 and 1620 and later etched in Holla using the technique of etching. The sheet measures 32.5 x 39.5 cm and bears significant markings: "O. M. : BASILAEA Basel" at the upper left corner, indicating its origin, while "Mathaeus Merian Basiliensis fecit" is inscribed below it. The intricate details of this artwork extend beyond the image itself, with further inscriptions thoughtfully distributed over the sheet. On the reverse side, an explanatory text written in Latin provides additional context to enhance our understanding of this masterpiece. Attributed to Matthaus Merian d. A. , a renowned artist hailing from Basel (1593-1650), whose talent extended far beyond his birthplace into Bad Schwalbach. This exceptional piece captures not only his artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to his passion for ornithology. As we admire this remarkable print from Liszt Collection, let us delve into its beauty without mentioning any commercial use or affiliations unrelated to appreciating art's true essence.
