EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in religious history. In the interior of a grand temple, we witness the high priest Zacharias standing with solemnity and reverence, holding a censer in his hand. Facing him is none other than the archangel Gabriel, whose presence signifies an extraordinary announcement about to be made. Gabriel's celestial aura illuminates the scene as he reveals to Zacharias that he will soon become a father to a son named John the Baptist. The weight of this revelation is palpable, as it foretells the arrival of one who would play a crucial role in shaping religious beliefs and practices. The artist Pieter van der Heyden masterfully captured this sacred encounter through his intricate engraving on paper. Created in Antwerp in 1601, this piece showcases both artistic skill and deep spiritual significance. Adding further depth to this remarkable artwork are two lines inscribed below in Latin: "Luc. 1" referring to Luke chapter 1 from the Bible, which narrates the annunciation of John's birth to Zacharias while offering incense at the temple. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a powerful reminder of divine intervention and human destiny intertwined within ancient traditions. It invites us into an ethereal realm where faith meets tangible existence – an eternal moment frozen forever for all admirers of art and spirituality alike.
