EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Man Warming Fire Zodiacal Sign Pisces Tours France". Created around 1480-1485 in Tours, France, this piece is an exquisite example of tempera colors, gold, and ink on parchment. The leaf measures approximately 16.4 x 11.6 cm (6 7/16 x 4 9/16 inches), making it a small yet impactful composition. In this image, we see a man huddled close to a crackling fire for warmth. His face reflects both the comfort and contemplation brought by the flickering flames. What makes this artwork even more intriguing is the inclusion of the zodiacal sign Pisces above him – symbolizing duality and fluidity through two fish swimming in opposite directions. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke and delicate use of gold accents that add depth and luminosity to the scene. The choice of using parchment as a canvas further enhances its timeless quality. This print transports us back to late medieval France, offering us a glimpse into daily life during that period while also inviting introspection about our own relationship with fire and its elemental power. It serves as a reminder of how art can capture not only physical realities but also evoke emotions and provoke thoughts across centuries.
