EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Study Prophet Jeremiah recto Studies Horse Man Seated" by Henry Fuseli. Born in Zurich, Switzerland in 1741, Fuseli came from a family of artists but initially trained to become a Zwinglian minister. However, his visit to London in the 1760s changed his path as he decided to pursue painting. Fuseli's deep knowledge of the Old Testament and admiration for Renaissance masters is underscored in this dramatic sketch of the prophet Jeremiah. Executed with brown ink and graphite on paper, this off-print reveals intricate details such as a nude female abdomen and legs on its verso side. The artist's practical approach to depicting biblical scenes is evident here, as this drawing served as an engraved illustration for Francis Willoughy's Bible published in 1772. The composition portrays Jeremiah deeply engrossed in studying while seated on a chair near a majestic horse. Measuring approximately 14 7/8 x 6 5/8 inches (36.7 x16.9 cm), this framed artwork captures Fuseli's mastery of pen work and his ability to convey emotion through lines and shading. It stands as an exquisite example of his artistic talent that seamlessly blends classical influences with his own unique style. Artokoloro has expertly preserved this significant piece from Fuseli's oeuvre, allowing art enthusiasts today to appreciate the genius behind one of history's most influential painters.
