EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable 16th-century engraving titled "Hercules Stealing Horses Diomedes". Created by the talented French artist Étienne Delaune, this piece of art transports us back in time to witness an extraordinary mythological tale. The image depicts Hercules, known for his incredible strength and bravery, engaged in a daring act. In Greek mythology, he is tasked with capturing the four wild horses belonging to King Diomedes. The intense scene unfolds before our eyes as Hercules stealthily approaches the stables under cover of darkness. Delaune's intricate engravings beautifully capture every detail of this dramatic moment. The composition exudes tension and energy, showcasing the artist's mastery in conveying movement and emotion through lines etched on paper. Measuring approximately 2 11/16 x 3 1/16 inches (68-77 cm), this print allows us to appreciate Delaune's artistry up close. It serves as a testament to his skillful technique and attention to detail. Étienne Delaune was born in Orleans around 1518-19 but later moved to Strasbourg where he honed his craft. His works are highly regarded for their precision and elegance, making him one of the most celebrated artists of his time. As we gaze upon this magnificent print, we are transported into a world where myth intertwines with reality—a visual feast that captivates both art enthusiasts and history lovers
