EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Allegory of delectation represented by a young man holding a lyre near a painting with fruits, books, weapons and two colombents that caress each other, all symbolizing the charm of the senses". Created by the Austrian School in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a book called "Iconologie oder Ideen aus dem Gebiete der Leidenschaften und Allegorien bildich dargestellt fur Zeichner, Mahler, Dichter, Gelehrte, Erzieher und freunde Hoherer Geschmacksbildung" (Iconology or ideas from the sphere of passions and allegories. . . ), published in Vienna in 1801. The image portrays a young man gracefully holding a lyre while standing next to a painting adorned with various objects. Fruits represent indulgence and pleasure for our taste buds; books signify knowledge and intellectual stimulation; weapons hint at power and desire; while two doves gently caressing each other symbolize love and sensuality. Together, these elements beautifully capture the allure of our senses. With its intricate details and masterful composition, this engraving is one among 225 illustrations contained within this remarkable book. Currently housed in a private collection, it serves as both an artistic treasure and historical artifact. Through Stefano Bianchetti's lens capturing this timeless piece from Fine Art Finder's archives, we are transported back to Vienna in 1801—a time when art was not only visually stunning but also carried profound symbolic meanings. This print invites us to delve into the world of passion and allegory while appreciating the beauty that lies within their representation.
