EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Initial Q Gillion Marie Gazing Carp Gillion Praying". Created by Flemish artists Lieven van Lathem and David Aubert in 1464, this piece is an exquisite example of their mastery in illuminating manuscripts. The image depicts two figures, identified as Gillion and Marie, engaged in different activities. On the left side of the initial 'Q, ' we see them gazing at a mesmerizing carp swimming gracefully. Their eyes are filled with awe and wonder as they observe the creature's beauty. The attention to detail is evident in every stroke of tempera colors used to bring life to this scene. On the right side, we witness another significant moment - Gillion deep in prayer. His hands clasped together fervently express his devotion and spirituality. This juxtaposition between admiration for nature and religious contemplation adds depth to the composition. The use of gold accents throughout enhances the luxurious feel of this illuminated manuscript leaf. The intricate patterns created with ink on parchment further demonstrate Van Lathem's skillful craftsmanship. Measuring 37 x 25.5 cm, this artwork demands attention with its striking composition and meticulous execution. It serves as a testament to Flemish artistry during the Renaissance period while offering viewers a glimpse into both natural beauty and spiritual introspection.
