EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Vittore Carpaccio, an Italian artist from the late 15th to early 16th century. The image is divided into two distinct parts: on the recto side, we see a bishop holding a candle in his hand, emanating a soft glow that illuminates his serene face. The delicate brushwork and wash technique used by Carpaccio bring out intricate details and create a sense of depth. On the verso side, we are presented with another intriguing composition - draped legs captured with remarkable precision. The folds and creases of the fabric are rendered beautifully using black chalk, adding texture and realism to this enigmatic depiction. Created in Italy during 1493, this piece measures approximately 20.2 x 11.1 cm (7 15/16 x 4 3/8 inches). It is executed with meticulous attention to detail and further enhanced with white gouache highlights that lend an ethereal quality to both sides of the print. The Liszt Collection has carefully preserved this extraordinary work by Vittore Carpaccio for art enthusiasts around the world to appreciate its historical significance and artistic brilliance.
