EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us to a world of mythical giants and epic struggles. In the center of the frame, we witness a giant heaving an enormous boulder with all his might, while other giants on both sides join in the struggle. The intensity of their efforts is palpable as they strain against the weight and force of these impending boulders. Amidst this chaotic scene, we notice nude figures climbing rocks in the background, adding an element of vulnerability and human presence to this larger-than-life spectacle. It is as if they too are caught up in this battle against overwhelming forces. The composition itself is reminiscent of "Giove che fulmina li giganti" a famous fresco found on the ceiling of Sala dei Giganti designed by Giulio Romano at Palazzo del Te in Mantua around 1680. This etching captures that grandeur and power, showcasing Bartoli's skillful interpretation after Giulio's original work. As we gaze upon this print, our imagination runs wild with stories and legends surrounding these colossal beings. We can almost feel their struggle reverberating through time and space. Artokoloro has masterfully preserved this moment for us to ponder upon - a testament to their dedication to preserving art history for generations to come.
