EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a classical scene, where figures are gathered around a sacrificial altar. The artist, Louis Félix de la Rue, a talented French draftsman from Paris in the 18th century, skillfully captures the essence of this ancient ritual through his meticulous pen strokes and delicate brushwork. The composition is filled with an air of mystery as we observe these enigmatic figures engaged in their sacred ceremony. De La Rue's attention to detail is evident in every line and wash of gray that brings depth and texture to the scene. The contrast between light and shadow adds an element of drama, enhancing our fascination with this timeless moment frozen on paper. Measuring approximately 9 1/4 by 11 7/16 inches (235 by 291 cm), this drawing invites us to immerse ourselves in its intricate beauty. As we study each figure's posture and expression, we can't help but wonder about their intentions and beliefs. While information about the specific historical context or narrative behind this artwork may be elusive, it doesn't diminish our appreciation for its artistic merit. This print serves as a testament to De La Rue's talent as well as a window into an era long past.
