EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of "Saint Celestine V Renouncing Papacy" in exquisite detail. Created by the talented artist Mattia Preti in 1761, this black chalk counterproof drawing measures 7 11/16 x 7 5/8 inches (19.5 x 19.3 cm). The artwork depicts Saint Celestine V, a former Pope who voluntarily resigned from his position after just five years as pontiff. In this scene, he is shown returning to his humble life as a pensioner at the French Academy in Rome. The renowned French artist Jean Honoré Fragonard skillfully copied and reproduced Preti's original work. Fragonard, known for his mastery of capturing emotions and delicate details, was greatly influenced by Italian art and had a close friendship with Jean Claude Richard, Abbé de Saint-Non. It was through their connection that Fragonard became acquainted with Preti's masterpiece. This print showcases not only the exceptional talent of both artists but also highlights the significance of historical moments captured through art. The Liszt Collection has preserved this remarkable piece for all to admire and appreciate its artistic brilliance.
