EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Two Wings Altarpiece depicting Saints John Baptist" with remarkable attention to detail. Created by the talented artist Jan van Scorel, a renowned Netherlandish painter from Schoorl, this mid-16th-century masterpiece is truly awe-inspiring. The altarpiece consists of two separate pieces, each portraying different saints in their divine glory. The left wing depicts Saint John the Baptist, known for his role as the precursor to Jesus Christ and his baptismal rituals. On the right wing stands Saint Catherine, a revered martyr who fearlessly defended her faith. Surrounded by intricately designed niches and adorned with heavenly angels above them, these sacred figures emanate an aura of spirituality that transcends time. The artist's skilled use of pen, brown ink, gray wash, squared black chalk, and graphite brings depth and dimension to every stroke. Preserved on paper and later laid down on a sheet measuring 8 1/16 x 6 7/16 inches (204 x 163 cm), this print captures the essence of Van Scorel's genius. Its framing line adds an elegant touch while emphasizing its historical significance. With its rich history rooted in Utrecht during the Renaissance period, this exceptional artwork serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic mastery. A true treasure from Liszt Collection that invites viewers into a world where faith meets beauty in perfect harmony.
