EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are presented with a powerful representation of Faith personified. The central figure, known as Faith, sits majestically with a large cross held firmly in her hand. Her serene expression exudes unwavering belief and trust. Beneath her, two figures seem to look up to her in awe and reverence. Perhaps they symbolize individuals seeking guidance and solace in their own personal journeys of faith. Meanwhile, in the background lurk three diabolical figures who serve as a stark contrast to the purity and righteousness embodied by Faith. The artwork references various concepts related to faith such as Fides (Latin for faith), Fede catholica (Catholic faith), Fede christiana (Christian faith), and Fede christiana catholica (Christian Catholic faith). These elements add depth and complexity to the portrayal of Faith as an all-encompassing virtue that transcends religious boundaries. Created by Jacob Folkema between 1725-1767 using paper etching techniques, this piece showcases his exceptional talent for capturing intricate details while evoking profound emotions. The mention of Folkema's name on the object further emphasizes his contribution to this remarkable work of art. This print is not just a mere depiction; it invites us to reflect on our own beliefs and encourages us to embrace the power of unwavering conviction amidst adversity. It serves as a timeless reminder that even when faced with darkness or doubt, true Faith can guide
