EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases "Plague darkness" by Jan Luyken, a renowned Dutch artist who lived between 1703 and 1762 in Amsterdam. The artwork, created using paper and etching techniques, measures approximately 111 mm in height and 159 mm in width. Luyken's masterpiece depicts a haunting scene of darkness engulfing the city during a plague outbreak. The intricate details captured through his skilled etching technique transport viewers back to this tumultuous period in history. The eerie atmosphere evoked by the image serves as a chilling reminder of the devastating impact that pandemics can have on society. The composition skillfully balances light and shadow, emphasizing the overwhelming presence of darkness that shrouds Amsterdam. Luyken's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, allowing us to discern desperate figures navigating through an impenetrable gloom. Their silhouettes convey fear and uncertainty while also symbolizing resilience amidst adversity. This print not only preserves Luyken's artistic brilliance but also serves as a poignant historical document reflecting the collective experience of those affected by plagues throughout time. It invites contemplation about our own struggles with global health crises today
