EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithographic portrait of the legendary Hungarian-born composer and pianist Franz Liszt (1811-1886) was created by the renowned Austrian artist Josef Kriehuber (1800-1876) in 1846. The image captures Liszt in the prime of his career, with an intense and focused expression that reflects his extraordinary musical talent and charisma. Born in Raiding, Hungary, Liszt is considered one of the most influential figures in the development of Western classical music. Known for his virtuosic performances on the piano and his innovative compositions, Liszt was a trailblazer in the Romantic era, pushing the boundaries of musical expression and technique. This portrait, which is part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into the public image of Liszt during his time in Vienna, where he spent many years as a celebrated performer and composer. The lithographic technique, which involves the transfer of an image from a limestone plate to paper using a water-based ink, allows for intricate detail and tonal depth, making it an ideal medium for capturing the nuances of Liszt's features and the rich textures of his clothing. Kriehuber's portrait of Liszt is not only a testament to the artist's skill and mastery of the lithographic process, but also a valuable historical document that sheds light on the life and legacy of one of the most influential figures in the history of classical music.
