EDITORS COMMENTS
This black-and-white print, titled "Le retour a la vertu" showcases the artistic brilliance of Charles Le Brun. Created in 1795, this stipple engraving and etching by Niccolo Schiavonetti beautifully captures the essence of virtue's return. The image transports us to a world where morality triumphs over vice. Le Brun masterfully depicts a scene filled with symbolism and emotion. The central figure, representing Virtue herself, stands tall and proud amidst a backdrop of darkness. Her serene expression radiates strength and determination as she holds an olive branch in one hand and gently guides a young child towards righteousness with the other. Every detail in this artwork is meticulously crafted – from the delicate lines that define each character to the intricate shading that adds depth to their forms. The contrast between light and shadow further enhances the dramatic impact of this composition. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are reminded of Le Brun's exceptional talent for capturing human emotions through his artistry. His ability to convey complex concepts like virtue through visual storytelling is truly remarkable. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a testament to both Le Brun's artistic genius and Schiavonetti's skillful interpretation. It invites us into a world where goodness prevails, inspiring us to strive for virtuous lives ourselves.
