EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us to a serene cityscape in the 17th century. The focal point of the image is a magnificent stone bridge that gracefully arches over a tranquil canal, flanked by lush trees on either side. As we observe this scene, our eyes are drawn to a woman descending the stairs towards the water, perhaps seeking solace or enjoying an afternoon stroll. The bridge itself holds secrets of its own history, as remnants of a sculpture depicting a standing figure can be seen adorning one of its pillars. This detail adds an intriguing layer to the composition and invites us to ponder about the stories behind it. To further enliven this picturesque setting, we notice a man walking with his loyal canine companion on the right side of the frame. Their presence injects life into this otherwise still moment and reminds us of daily routines and companionship that transcend time. Painted by Jan van der Heyden between 1660 and 1672, this panel captures not only architectural beauty but also evokes emotions through skillful use of oil paint. With dimensions measuring approximately 37 cm in height and 44.5 cm in width, this artwork allows us to immerse ourselves in its intricate details while appreciating its historical significance.
