EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a masterpiece by Abraham Bloemaert, titled "Preaching Saint John Baptist St John Mountainous landscape". The painting transports us to a serene and mountainous landscape where listeners gather around to hear the preaching of Saint John the Baptist. In the center of the composition stands a man with a drum strapped to his back, adding an intriguing musical element to this spiritual scene. In front of him, a nursing woman captivates our attention, symbolizing nourishment and care amidst the divine message being delivered. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we notice that among the bystanders may be Christ himself, subtly blending in with those who have come to listen. It is through John's powerful words that he identifies Christ as the Lamb of God - Ecce Agnus Dei - referencing verses 29 and 36 from the Gospel of John. Bloemaert skillfully captures both human interaction and breathtaking landscapes within this temperate zone setting. His mastery over oil paint brings out vibrant colors and intricate details that enhance our visual experience. This remarkable canvas measures 139 cm in height, 188 cm in width, and has a depth of 8.5 cm. Created between 1590-1610, it serves as an enduring testament to Bloemaert's artistic prowess and his ability to convey profound religious narratives through his brushstrokes.
