EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases John Flaxman's "Study Two Women Grieving" a poignant depiction of sorrow and loss. Created in 1787, this pen and gray ink drawing with brush washes beautifully captures the emotional depth of its subjects. Flaxman, a renowned British neoclassical sculptor, enjoyed international acclaim during his time. Known for his mastery of line purity and soft washes, he presents us with two women who are perhaps sisters, engaged in mourning poses. Their grief is palpable as they lean on each other for support. The composition is both delicate and powerful, evoking a sense of vulnerability while also conveying strength through unity. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; their flowing garments and expressive faces reveal the profound sadness they are experiencing. Measuring at 13 3/8 x 9 7/16 inches (34 x 24 cm), this drawing invites viewers to contemplate human emotions and the universal experience of grief. It serves as a reminder that even amidst sorrow, there can be solace found in shared moments of empathy. This print offers an opportunity to appreciate Flaxman's exceptional talent as well as reflect on our own capacity for compassion. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within one's personal collection, it serves as a timeless testament to the enduring power of art to capture raw human emotion.
