EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Judgment of Midas" a remarkable artwork created by German artist Hermann Weyer in 1616. The piece, rendered using pen and black ink, is brought to life with the addition of ochre, reddish, and gray washes, along with delicate white gouache highlighting. In this scene from Greek mythology, we witness the pivotal moment when King Midas faces the consequences of his ill-fated wish for everything he touched to turn into gold. As depicted by Weyer's skilled hand, a group of gods gathers around Midas as he sits on his throne in anguish. Their expressions reveal their disapproval and disappointment at his foolish desire. The intricate details captured in this 22.1 x 27 cm print allow us to appreciate Weyer's mastery in portraying human emotions through art. Each stroke adds depth and dimension to the figures' faces while also enhancing the overall composition. "The Judgment of Midas" serves as a timeless reminder about the perils of greed and unchecked desires. It invites viewers to reflect upon their own ambitions and consider the potential consequences that may arise from pursuing them without caution or wisdom. As part of Liszt Collection's extensive catalog, this print offers art enthusiasts an opportunity to bring home a piece imbued with historical significance and artistic brilliance.
