EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported to a lawyer's room adorned with opulence and grandeur. A richly dressed lawyer commands attention as he sits confidently in front of a crackling fireplace, his eyes fixed on an important document placed upon the lectern before him. Standing beside him is a man, hat in hand, gesturing earnestly towards the lawyer. It seems that this man seeks advice, but the lawyer's firm hand gesture makes it clear that such guidance comes at a price. As our gaze wanders through the scene, we notice a young boy standing next to the man, holding a ham and sausage. His innocent curiosity draws us closer as he looks directly towards us - perhaps questioning why seeking legal counsel requires such material offerings. The background reveals shelves filled with books and two imposing busts overseeing these intellectual treasures. Behind them lies a fence separating us from another figure diligently working at their desk - an attorney immersed in their own world of legal matters. This exquisite drypoint etching by David van der Kellen captures not only the physical space of a lawyer's domain but also highlights societal dynamics surrounding wealth and access to justice. It serves as both an intriguing visual narrative and an invitation for contemplation on themes that transcend time.
