EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable portrait of a man, bust facing right. Initially believed to be the renowned philosopher Baruch de Spinoza, this enigmatic artwork has since been reevaluated. Created by an anonymous Dutch master around 1670, it now resides in the prestigious Royal House Archive (cat. No. 462). Part of a collection of portrait miniatures featuring historical figures whose identities remain unknown, this particular piece is both intriguing and mysterious. The artist skillfully employed cardboard as the canvas for their creation, using oil paint to bring depth and life to every stroke. Measuring at approximately 14.5 cm in height, 11.6 cm in width, and with a depth of 1.6 cm, this miniature masterpiece showcases the meticulous attention to detail that was characteristic of its time. Johan Michael Schmidt Crans (1840-1907), curator extraordinaire and guardian of such treasured artworks, ensures that this extraordinary piece remains preserved for generations to come. As you gaze upon this photograph print from the Liszt Collection, allow yourself to delve into the enigma surrounding this unnamed historical figure who once masqueraded as Baruch de Spinoza himself. Let your imagination wander through time and space as you contemplate his story and ponder over his significance within history's vast tapestry.
