EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Row of three heads in profile to left, 1645" is a remarkable creation by the talented artist Wenceslaus Hollar. Dating back to the 17th century, this etching showcases the artist's exceptional skill in capturing intricate details and conveying emotions through his work. In this piece, Hollar presents us with a row of three male heads turned towards the left side. Each face is meticulously depicted in profile, allowing us to observe their distinct features and expressions. The subjects range from an old man with weathered lines on his face to a middle-aged gentleman exuding wisdom and a young man emanating youthful energy. The simplicity of black and white adds depth to these portraits as it emphasizes light and shadow play across their faces. It also gives the artwork a timeless quality that transcends centuries. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this masterpiece offers viewers an intimate glimpse into Bohemian heritage during the seventeenth century. Through Hollar's artistry, we are transported back in time to witness these individuals frozen forever in their contemplative states. As we admire this print by Wenceslaus Hollar, we can't help but marvel at his ability to capture not only physical appearances but also evoke curiosity about each subject's story. This artwork serves as a testament to Hollar's talent as well as our enduring fascination with portraiture throughout history.
