EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the profound artwork titled "Allegory of Charity" by Philips de Flines. The image depicts a powerful female personification of charity, compassionately distributing money to those in need. To the right, a beggar gratefully receives her generous offering. In the background, an elephant and an eagle symbolize strength and wisdom. Part of a remarkable series of five allegories painted between 1675 and 1683 for the Messina house on Herengracht, this masterpiece captures the essence of generosity and liberality. Through its exquisite use of grisaille technique – painting solely in shades of gray – De Flines skillfully conveys depth and emotion. The abstract concept represented by this graceful female figure embodies both Generosità (Generosity) and Liberalità (Liberality), as defined by Ripa's iconography. This timeless piece transports us to Northern Netherlands during a period when art flourished under De Flines' talented brush strokes. Measuring an impressive height of 288 cm with a width of 160 cm and thickness of 4.4 cm, this canvas is brought to life through meticulously applied oil paint. Its intricate details capture our imagination while evoking feelings of empathy towards those less fortunate. As part of the Liszt Collection, this print serves as a testament to humanity's capacity for kindness and reminds us that even small acts can make a significant impact on others' lives.
