EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases "Fall Troy Escape Aeneas" an engraving sheet created by Italian artist Giorgio Ghisi in the mid-1540s. Measuring 15 3/16 x 19 7/16 inches (38.6 x 49.3 cm), this stunning piece depicts a pivotal moment in ancient mythology. The engraving transports viewers to the legendary city of Troy, where Aeneas, a Trojan hero and central figure in Virgil's epic poem "The Aeneid" is shown amidst chaos and destruction. As flames engulf the city, Aeneas leads his family and followers through treacherous terrain, desperately seeking their escape. Ghisi's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. The intricate lines bring life to each character and convey a sense of urgency as they navigate their way through fallen structures and debris. This particular print captures not only Ghisi's artistic prowess but also pays homage to Giovanni Battista Scultori, whose original work inspired Ghisi's interpretation. It serves as a testament to the enduring influence of classical literature on Renaissance art. Whether you are an admirer of Italian art or have an affinity for ancient tales, this remarkable print offers a glimpse into both history and imagination. Its presence will undoubtedly enrich any collection or space it graces with its timeless beauty.
