EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a thought-provoking allegorical representation titled "Right wrong passions". The image portrays a man who has allowed negative passions to enter his room, symbolized by mischievous putti. These wayward spirits represent pursuits of wealth, play, sleep, and conflict, diverting the man away from virtuous endeavors. In contrast, the print highlights the presence of good passions embodied by Hercules' powerful club and Minerva's shield adorned with Medusa's head. The Latin inscription in uppercase adds an air of mystique to this artwork while emphasizing its classical influences. Alongside it is a four-line caption in both Latin and French languages that further enhances the depth of meaning behind this piece. It explores Hercules as a personification or abstract notion caught between Virtues and Vices in an intense psychological battle known as Psychomachy. Created anonymously in Antwerp between 1590 and 1632 using paper and etching techniques, this print exhibits exceptional craftsmanship. Its dimensions measure at approximately 270 mm in height by 195 mm in width.
