EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection captures a moment of clandestine romance in the heart of Paris, France. Painted around 1405, "A Woman Meeting with Her Lover while Her Husband Sleeps" depicts an intimate scene that unfolds under the cover of darkness. The woman, her face illuminated by soft candlelight, stands beside her slumbering husband. As she gazes longingly at her lover, their eyes meet in silent understanding. The artist skillfully employs tempera colors and gold leaf to bring this enchanting rendezvous to life on parchment. Bound between pasteboard covered with dark red morocco, this delicate artwork measures 36.7 x 26 cm (14 7/16 x 10 1/4 in. ), making it a precious treasure from Europe's artistic heritage. The composition exudes an air of secrecy and forbidden desire as the lovers navigate the complexities of their relationship. It is a testament to human emotions transcending time and place – a universal tale that resonates even today. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, we are transported back to medieval Paris where passion intertwines with duty and loyalty hangs delicately in the balance. This photograph print invites us to ponder upon love's intricate web and contemplate our own desires hidden beneath layers of societal expectations
