EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print titled "Doctor Dance Death 1651 Etching second state" by Artokoloro, we are transported back to the year 1651 and presented with a captivating scene. The etching, which is based on an original work by Hans Holbein the Younger, depicts an old man seeking medical advice from a seated doctor in his study. The composition is rich in symbolism as it explores the eternal dance between life and death. On the left side of the image, we see the elderly patient anxiously consulting with the doctor, perhaps hoping for a remedy to prolong his existence. Meanwhile, on the right side of the frame, Death himself makes an appearance - depicted as a skeletal figure stepping forward with bony hands outstretched towards both men. The artist skillfully captures this moment frozen in time through meticulous details and shading techniques characteristic of etchings. The use of light and shadow adds depth to each element within this intricate composition. Measuring at approximately 2 1/4 x 76 x 57 cm, this print from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection serves as a testament to their commitment to preserving historical artworks. It invites viewers to contemplate mortality while appreciating artistic mastery that transcends time and place.
