EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to 1555 as we witness a pivotal moment in the biblical story of Susanna. Created by the talented German artist Heinrich Aldegrever, this engraving titled "Story of Susanna: Susanna Accused of Adultery" captures the intense emotions and dramatic tension of the narrative. The scene unfolds with Susanna, a virtuous woman accused falsely of adultery by two elders. With masterful skill, Aldegrever portrays her vulnerability and innocence through delicate lines and intricate details. The viewer is drawn into her plight as she stands before a tribunal, surrounded by judgmental figures who eagerly await her fate. Aldegrever's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this engraving. From the ornate architecture that frames the scene to the expressive faces of those involved, each element contributes to an immersive experience for viewers. The use of light and shadow adds depth and intensity to this powerful composition. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded not only of its historical significance but also its timeless relevance. It serves as a reminder that even in moments when truth seems obscured or justice appears distant, there is always hope for redemption and vindication. This print allows us to bring home a piece of art history while immersing ourselves in a thought-provoking narrative that continues to resonate today.
