EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases Heinrich Aldegrever's "Tamar Turned Out Amnon House" engraving, depicting a powerful scene based on the biblical story found in 2 Samuel 13:17. The second state of this artwork, created around 1540, is beautifully preserved and presented here. In the image, we see Tamar standing outside a grand house with tears streaming down her face. She has just been forcefully expelled by her half-brother Amnon after he violated her. As Tamar cries on the left side of the composition, a servant stands at the doorway witnessing this heart-wrenching moment. The artist skillfully captures both the emotional turmoil and architectural details in this piece. The intricate lines and shading bring depth to every element of the engraving. With dimensions measuring approximately 4 5/8 x 118 x 76 cm, this print demands attention and invites contemplation. Heinrich Aldegrever was a German artist born in Paderborn around 1502-1555/1561 who later settled in Soest. This particular work is part of his series consisting of seven plates that narrate Tamar's tragic story. As an important addition to any art collection or historical display, this print serves as a poignant reminder of timeless themes such as betrayal, resilience, and justice depicted through masterful craftsmanship.
