EDITORS COMMENTS
Arnold von Westerhout, a Flemish artist from the 17th to 18th century, presents us with an intriguing glimpse into his creative world through this etching titled 'Il Greco in Troia: Plate 1. ' This exquisite print, part of the Liszt Collection and brought to life by Quint Lox Limited, showcases Westerhout's masterful skill in both etching and engraving techniques on laid paper. In this artwork, we are transported to ancient Troy as depicted by the artist. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line and stroke seems purposefully placed to convey a sense of grandeur and drama. The figures come alive with their expressive faces and dynamic poses, capturing our imagination as they interact within the mythical setting. Westerhout's choice of subject matter adds another layer of intrigue. 'Il Greco' refers to El Greco (Domenikos Theotokopoulos), a renowned painter from the Spanish Renaissance period. By placing him in Troy, Westerhout merges two distinct artistic worlds together—an homage that sparks curiosity about their connection or perhaps explores themes of timelessness and cultural exchange. This restrike print allows us to appreciate von Westerhout's artistry centuries after its creation. It serves as a testament not only to his technical prowess but also his ability to transport viewers across time and space through his imaginative compositions.
