EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Three Virtues Temperance Hope Fortitude Justice" by Artokoloro takes us back in time to the artistic brilliance of 15th-century Florence. The image showcases a seated man engrossed in his studies, surrounded by symbols representing the virtues of temperance, hope, fortitude, and justice. Created around 1420 using metalpoint technique with touches of brushwork and brown wash heightened with white on partially oxidized reddish-violet prepared paper, this drawing is a rare gem attributed to the circle of Lorenzo Monaco and Piero di Giovanni. These artists were considered preeminent figures during the early fifteenth century Florentine art scene. The figure in the lower left corner draws our attention as he retraces lines with pen and ink at a later date. This detail adds an intriguing layer to the artwork's history and evolution over time. Measuring approximately 9 13/16 x 7 5/16 inches (24.9 x 18.5 cm), this drawing was likely part of an album or collection that showcased various works from different artists. Its historical significance cannot be overstated, as it provides valuable insights into Renaissance art practices. The Liszt Collection has once again brought forth a remarkable piece that allows us to appreciate the skill and creativity of these renowned Italian painters from centuries past.
