EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to Augsburg, Germany in the late 16th century. The image showcases a distinguished herald proudly wearing a medal on a chain around his neck. The exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in this artwork, which was created using tempera colors and adorned with gold and silver paint. The herald's regal attire reflects the opulence of the era, as he stands tall with an air of authority. His medal, undoubtedly symbolizing honor or achievement, adds an intriguing element to the composition. It is fascinating to imagine what this esteemed individual may have accomplished or represented within society during that time. The use of paper bound between original pasteboard covered with brown calf further emphasizes the historical significance of this piece. Its large size - measuring 43 x 28.9 cm - allows for intricate details to be appreciated up close. As we gaze upon this remarkable work of art, we are transported back in time and given a glimpse into Augsburg's rich cultural heritage during the Renaissance period. This photograph print serves as a testament to both the artistic talent of its creator and the enduring legacy left behind by those who wore such prestigious medals centuries ago.
