EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Pietro Testa, an Italian artist from the 17th century. The image features a piece titled "Holy Family with Saint Anne (recto), Figure Sketches (verso)" which is a testament to Testa's immense talent and attention to detail. On the recto side of the print, we are greeted by a stunning depiction of the Holy Family alongside Saint Anne. The use of pen and brown ink, combined with brown wash and black chalk, creates a rich and dynamic composition. Every stroke seems purposeful, bringing life to each figure portrayed. Flipping over to the verso side reveals intriguing figure sketches in faint black and red chalk. These delicate lines offer us a glimpse into Testa's creative process as he explored different poses and compositions before finalizing his masterpiece on the other side. Measuring at approximately 37.3 x 25.2 cm, this artwork transports us back in time to Italy during the mid-17th century. It serves as a reminder of both Testa's incredible skill as an artist and his deep devotion to religious subjects. The Liszt Collection has expertly captured this exceptional piece through their high-quality photo print, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty without commercial intentions but rather for pure admiration of artistic excellence.
