EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a mythical scene of ancient times. Titled "Rest Diana nymphs hunt resting spied three satyrs" it captures a moment of tranquility and surprise in the lives of these legendary beings. In this enchanting image, we see the goddess Diana, known for her association with hunting and nature, taking respite after a successful hunt. She reclines gracefully alongside her nymphs, who also appear weary yet contented. The evidence of their triumph lies before them on the floor - several slain animals that were no match for their skillful prowess. However, unbeknownst to Diana and her companions, they are being observed by mischievous satyrs. These half-human, half-goat creatures symbolize wildness and revelry in Greek mythology. Their presence adds an element of intrigue to the scene as they spy upon the unsuspecting group. Created by Jacob Louys in Haarlem between 1644 and 1650 using paper engraving techniques, this artwork showcases his mastery in capturing both delicate details and powerful emotions within a single frame. The dimensions of this print measure approximately 342 mm in height and 405 mm in width. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing composition, we are transported into a world where myth intertwines with reality - where beauty meets danger amidst nature's bounty. It serves as a reminder that even goddesses can find solace amidst chaos while remaining ever vigilant against unexpected intrusions
