EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century black chalk print, titled "Drunken Silenus Riding Ass" is a true masterpiece from the Liszt Collection. Created by the talented French artist Jacques Sarazin, this drawing showcases his exceptional skill and attention to detail. The artwork depicts a whimsical scene of Silenus, a mythological figure known for his association with wine and revelry, riding on the back of an ass. The composition exudes an air of merriment and lightheartedness as Silenus appears inebriated while holding onto the reins tightly. His disheveled appearance and mischievous smile suggest that he has indulged in one too many libations. Sarazin's use of black chalk brings depth and texture to the piece, allowing us to appreciate every stroke and contour. The framing lines in red further enhance its visual impact by adding contrast and highlighting key elements within the drawing. Measuring at approximately 3 5/8 x 7 15/16 inches (9.20 x 20.1 cm), this artwork may be small in size but it carries immense artistic value. It serves as a testament to Sarazin's talent as well as his ability to capture moments of joyous abandon through his art. As we admire this remarkable creation from Artokoloro, we are transported back in time to witness Sarazin's genius firsthand. This piece remains an enduring symbol of creativity and serves as a reminder that even centuries
