EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection depicts a scene from the series titled "First pretext: the new Van d Inrydingh Iesu field, and some histories of success". Specifically, it portrays a moment from the parable of the royal wedding. In this image, a servant of the king approaches the first guest and extends an invitation to join in the joyous celebration. However, instead of accepting graciously, the guest offers his apologies with an excuse - he has just acquired a new field that requires his immediate attention. The intricate details within this engraving are truly remarkable. Alongside the artwork is a Latin reference to Luke 14 in the Bible where this story can be found. The print itself is part of an album that explores various narratives related to invited guests making excuses for not attending a royal wedding feast. Created by Dirck Volckertsz Coornhert between 1558 and 1559 (or possibly 1646), this piece showcases his exceptional talent as both an artist and engraver. Measuring approximately 205mm in height and 250mm in width, it is printed on high-quality paper. As you delve into this thought-provoking image, you cannot help but ponder upon human nature's tendency to prioritize material possessions over meaningful experiences. It serves as a timeless reminder that true happiness lies not in worldly acquisitions but rather in embracing moments of celebration and connection with others.
