EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fortified gate Duren 1664 Etching first state" takes us back in time to the city of Duren in the year 1664. The etching, created by Wenceslaus Hollar, a renowned Bohemian artist from Prague who later settled in London, beautifully captures the essence of this fortified gate. The image showcases a bustling scene with two men and a woman accompanied by their faithful dog walking along a road that leads towards the fortified city. On the left side, we can see a majestic round tower standing tall, while on the right stands a square bastion, both serving as symbols of strength and protection. The level of detail captured in this print is truly remarkable. Every line and stroke brings life to every element within it. From the texture of the cobblestone road to the intricate architectural features of both buildings, one cannot help but marvel at Hollar's skillful craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to an era where fortifications played an essential role in safeguarding cities from potential threats. It serves as a reminder of our rich history and how architecture has evolved over time. This print from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection is not only visually stunning but also offers us an opportunity to appreciate artistry through centuries-old techniques such as etching.
