EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a powerful and gruesome scene titled "Decapitation of Ambiodorix". The print, located on the top right corner, is labeled as f: 603 and was created by Jan Luyken in Amsterdam back in 1681. The image depicts a violent death by beheading, capturing the intense moment with great detail and emotion. Ambiodorix's fate is sealed as his head is forcefully separated from his body, leaving no room for mercy or escape. The artist's skillful etching technique brings this chilling event to life on paper. Jan Luyken's name is mentioned on the object itself, indicating his authorship of this haunting piece of art. His talent shines through every stroke, conveying both the horror and inevitability of such a brutal execution. Amsterdam serves as the backdrop for this historical depiction, adding an extra layer of significance to its creation. This print stands as a testament to not only Luyken's artistic prowess but also to society's fascination with violence during that era. As part of the Liszt Collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into a dark chapter in history while reminding us of our own morbid curiosity about violent deaths throughout time
