EDITORS COMMENTS
"Plate 7 for Schiller's 'Intrigue and Love' by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, 1785, is an intriguing and captivating etching from the eighteenth century. This artwork was originally published in the Genealogischer Kalender aus das Jahr 1786, an almanac popular in both Europe and America during this period. The plate depicts a scene from Friedrich Schiller's play "Love and Intrigue," or "Don Carlos," a drama of love and politics set in Spain during the 16th century. Chodowiecki masterfully captures the tension and emotion of the story through his black and white etching. In the center, we see a woman, likely Luise Miller, standing defiantly with her arms crossed, her gaze fixed on the figure of the man before her. The man, possibly Don Carlos, is shown with a letter in hand, his expression a mixture of anger and despair. The figures are set against a backdrop of a dark, ominous landscape, adding to the sense of intrigue and drama. The lettering at the top and bottom of the plate identifies the scene and the author, Schiller. The etching's historic significance lies in its connection to one of the most celebrated German writers of the time and its depiction of a popular literary work. Today, Plate 7 for Schiller's 'Intrigue and Love' is a valuable addition to any art collection or exhibition, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the 18th century." This etching is currently on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), adding to the museum's extensive collection of European art. The artwork is a testament to the enduring appeal of Schiller's literature and Chodowiecki's artistic talent. Visitors to the museum can appreciate the intricacies of the etching and the story it tells, making it a must-see for anyone interested in European history, literature, or art.
