EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Seated Sibyl Attendant Genius recto Study Head" by Artokoloro. Created around 1540, this drawing is executed in red chalk on beige paper, with additional details added using pen and brown ink. The dimensions of this piece are 9 5/8 x 10 7/16 inches (24.5 x 26.5 cm), highlighting its intricate composition. The image captures a seated sibyl accompanied by an attendant genius, both depicted in profile view. This monumental portrayal draws inspiration from figural types found in ancient Roman frescoes, as well as Michelangelo's renowned work on the Sistine Ceiling between 1508 and 1512. The bold and finished manner of this drawing evokes the style reminiscent of Raphael's studies during the years of 1515-1520. Pirro Ligorio, an Italian artist hailing from Naples circa Ferrara, skillfully brings forth these ancestral figures associated with Christ through his masterful use of red chalk and precise detailing. The height achieved in this artwork transports viewers to the grandeur of the Roman period while showcasing Ligorio's artistic prowess. This print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Ligorio's talent and explore his interpretation of these mythical characters within their historical context. It serves as a testament to Artokoloro's dedication to preserving and sharing exceptional works that transcend time and captivate our imagination.
