EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a title page featuring a smiling man holding a corner cloth tied to a fig tree with one hand, while pointing at it with a stick in the other. The intricate details of this engraving, created by Jean Pillement in 1759, are truly remarkable. The composition is framed by an elegant inscription that reads "Recueil de plusieurs jeux d'enfants chinois" adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. The French artist's talent shines through as he expertly captures the essence of Chinese children's games. Measuring approximately 19 3/16 x 12 15/16 inches (487 x 328 cm), this sheet holds immense historical value. It transports us back to the artistic era of Jean Pillement, who was born in Lyons in 1728 and passed away in Paris in 1808. Pierre Charles Canot, an active figure in England during that time period, played a significant role in bringing this masterpiece to life. As we admire this print, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its cultural significance. This image serves as a testament to the cross-cultural exchange between France and China during the eighteenth century. Let it inspire us to explore different art forms and embrace diversity across borders without commercial intentions or implications.
