EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from Antonio Cesti's opera "Il pomo d oro" performed in Vienna for the grand wedding of Leopold I, Holy Roman Emperor, and Margarita Teresa, Spanish Infanta. The plate illustrates act I, scene 4, which takes place in the magnificent palace of Jupiter. In this elaborate depiction, we witness the banquet of the Gods as they gather at Jupiter's regal palace. Hebe and Ganymede serve as gracious hosts to the divine guests while a chorus of lesser deities adds to the enchanting atmosphere. Amidst this celestial celebration, Discord makes her mischievous appearance by throwing the golden apple into their midst. The intricate etching beautifully showcases Lodovico Burnacini's artistic talent as he meticulously brings this mythical world to life. The attention to detail is further enhanced by Matthaeus Kusel's skillful execution. This remarkable piece not only serves as a visual feast but also commemorates an auspicious occasion in history - a union between two powerful royal families. It stands as a testament to the grandeur and opulence that surrounded such significant events during this era. As we gaze upon this print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary moment where myth and reality converge within one breathtaking spectacle.
