EDITORS COMMENTS
This rare and outstanding example of a 16th-century drawing by Joseph Heintz the Elder showcases his mature and elaborate style. Titled "Satyrs Nymphs" this intricate piece captures the artist's skillful use of pen, black ink, brush washes, red chalk, heightened with white bodycolor, and chalk underdrawing. Heintz was a Swiss artist born in Basel in 1564 and later active in Prague. This drawing is believed to have been created around 1599 during his time at the court of Emperor Rudolf II. Known for his favored complex compositions and figures in distorted positions, Heintz often depicted mythological subjects with a slightly lascivious nature. Measuring approximately 9 1/4 x 12 5/8 inches (235 x 32 cm), this sheet exemplifies Heintz's exceptional talent for capturing movement and emotion through detailed linework. The influence of important paintings from the era can be seen in his work as he masterfully combines various techniques to create depth and texture. Currently housed at the Alte Pinakothek museum in Munich, this drawing serves as a testament to Heintz's artistic prowess and contribution to Renaissance art. Its inclusion within the Liszt Collection further highlights its significance as an invaluable historical artifact that offers viewers a glimpse into the artistic brilliance of one of Switzerland's most celebrated artists.
