EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to a serene study, where a young man and boy are immersed in their scholarly pursuits. The scene is rich with details that invite us to explore every corner of this intimate space. In the foreground, we see the young boy standing confidently before a work table adorned with various objects of knowledge. An open book lies beside a map, suggesting his dedication to both literature and geography. A lute rests nearby, hinting at his appreciation for music as well. An ink set stands ready for use, while a globe and statue of Venus add an air of curiosity and wonder. The shelves against the wall are filled with books and rolls of maps, showcasing an impressive collection that surely fuels their intellectual endeavors. On the floor lie additional treasures - another book, map, and even a plaster head - perhaps serving as inspiration or tools for artistic expression. A staircase on the right leads to an upper floor where we find a girl ascending with her own book in hand. This glimpse into their shared passion for learning adds depth to our understanding of this scholarly environment. At the center stands a column displaying a painting featuring a child portrait - an intriguing focal point that sparks our imagination about its significance within this setting.

This remarkable panel print captures not only artistry but also invites
