EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Standing Youth Hands Back Seated Youth Reading" by Artokoloro from the Liszt Collection showcases the remarkable talent of Italian artist Filippino Lippi. Created between 1457 and 1504, this metalpoint drawing on pink prepared paper is a testament to Lippi's virtuosity as a draftsman. The image depicts two studies on the recto side, with a standing youth seen from behind, his hands elegantly placed at his back. On the verso side, we find another study of a seated youth engrossed in reading. Lippi's precise and descriptive handling of metalpoint technique brings these figures to life. The lean and muscular male nude figure on the left is conceived as a preparatory study for Saint Sebastian or Christ in a flagellation scene. The attention to detail and anatomical accuracy demonstrate Lippi's mastery over this challenging technique. Through this artwork, Filippino Lippi illustrates his ability to capture human form with unparalleled skill and sensitivity. Each stroke of white gouache highlights the contours of these figures, adding depth and dimension to their presence. Measuring approximately 9 5/8 x 8 1/2 inches (245 x 216 cm), this sheet serves as an exquisite example of Lippi's figure studies. It invites viewers into the world of Renaissance artistry while showcasing Artokoloro's commitment to preserving historical masterpieces for generations to come.
