EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to a serene and mystical scene. Titled "Flight Egypt large tree cuocade" it showcases the incredible talent of Dutch artist Herman van Swanevelt, who lived during the 17th century. The etching depicts an enchanting moment from the biblical story of The Flight into Egypt. A large, majestic tree stands tall at the center of the composition, its branches reaching towards the heavens. Its lush foliage provides shelter and solace for Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus as they seek refuge in their escape from danger. Van Swanevelt's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his etching technique. The delicate lines create a sense of depth and texture within each element: from the intricate leaves on the tree to the expressions on Mary and Joseph's faces as they navigate through unfamiliar territory. The cuocade - a traditional French term referring to a procession or parade - adds an intriguing layer to this artwork. It hints at both religious symbolism and cultural significance that further enriches our understanding of this timeless tale. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded not only of Van Swanevelt's artistic prowess but also of humanity's enduring search for safety, hope, and divine guidance amidst adversity.
