EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Studies Virgin Child Desiderio da Settignano". Created by Desiderio da Settignano or his workshop in Italy during the 1460s, this piece is a true testament to Italian Renaissance artistry. The image captures the delicate and tender bond between the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus. With precise pen strokes over a stylus underdrawing, the artist brings life to their figures, emphasizing their serene expressions and graceful postures. The use of brown ink adds depth and richness to the composition. On closer inspection, one can appreciate the meticulous attention to detail on both sides of this artwork. The recto reveals a masterful study of lines and shading techniques using pen and brown ink. Meanwhile, turning it over exposes an additional layer of artistry with black chalk enhancing certain elements. Measuring at 19.4 x 27.8 cm (7 5/8 x 10 15/16 in. ), this print allows us to admire every intricate stroke up close while maintaining its original dimensions faithfully. As part of Liszt Collection's vast array of artistic treasures, this remarkable piece serves as a window into the past—an opportunity for art enthusiasts worldwide to immerse themselves in the beauty and craftsmanship that defined Renaissance Italy.
