EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Amnon Violating Tamar" depicts a powerful scene from the biblical story of Amnon and Tamar. Created in 1540 by Heinrich Aldegrever, a renowned German artist from Paderborn, this engraving is considered the first state of its kind. Measuring 4 11/16 by 3 1/16 inches (119 x 78 cm), it showcases Aldegrever's exceptional attention to detail. In this gripping image, we witness Amnon as he forcefully grabs Tamar on her left side while she lies helplessly on a bed. The intensity of their emotions is palpable as they are surrounded by an intricately designed chest and other elements that add depth to the composition. Based on the tragic tale found in 2 Samuel 13:14, this plate is part of a larger series consisting of seven plates. The Liszt Collection has preserved this significant artwork for generations to appreciate and reflect upon its historical and artistic value.
