EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork "Salome with the Head of John the Baptist" by Cornelis Engebrechtsz, a renowned Dutch artist from the late 15th century. Created around 1490, this masterpiece is a testament to Engebrechtsz's exceptional talent and attention to detail. The composition depicts Salome, a biblical figure known for her role in requesting the beheading of John the Baptist. With brush and black ink, Engebrechtsz skillfully captures Salome's delicate features and haunting expression as she holds onto John's severed head. The use of gray wash and white gouache adds depth and texture to this striking image. Measuring approximately 19.8 x 15.6 cm, this print allows viewers to appreciate every intricate detail of Engebrechtsz's work. The corners are cut in an unconventional manner, adding a unique touch to its presentation. Engebrechtsz's portrayal of this biblical scene evokes both fascination and contemplation among art enthusiasts worldwide. This particular piece from the Liszt Collection serves as a reminder of how historical events can inspire profound artistic interpretations that transcend time.
