EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Bust of an Angel" by Hendrick Goltzius, a renowned Dutch artist from the 16th century. The sculpture, created in 1609, is a true masterpiece that exemplifies Goltzius' exceptional skill and attention to detail. The bust, crafted with black chalk and oiled black chalk on paper, is further enhanced with touches of white chalk to bring out the angel's ethereal beauty. Measuring at an impressive 55.6 x 39.7 cm (21 7/8 x 15 5/8 in. ), this artwork captivates viewers with its lifelike representation. Gazing upon this image transports us back in time to Holland during the European Renaissance period when art flourished under great masters like Goltzius. The delicately carved features of the angel's face evoke a sense of serenity and divine grace. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition, emphasizing every intricate detail meticulously captured by Goltzius' skilled hand. This piece serves as a testament to his mastery of chiaroscuro techniques. As we admire this remarkable print from Liszt Collection, we are reminded of how art has the power to transcend time and connect us with centuries-old traditions. It invites us into a world where angels come alive through artistic expression—a timeless reminder of humanity's fascination with celestial beings and our eternal quest for beauty and spirituality.
