EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to Bourges, France in 1390. The image showcases a profound moment of monks praying for a deceased individual. Created using tempera colors, gold leaf, and ink on parchment, this artwork exudes an air of solemnity and reverence. The composition is meticulously crafted with intricate details that draw the viewer's attention. The monks are depicted in various positions of prayer, their faces filled with deep contemplation and sorrow. Their robes flow gracefully around them as they gather together in unity to honor the departed soul. The use of tempera colors adds vibrancy to the scene while also capturing the somber mood. Gold leaf accents shimmer delicately throughout, symbolizing divinity and spirituality within this sacred ritual. The choice of parchment as a medium enhances the vintage aesthetic, giving it an aged appearance that further immerses us into history. Measuring at 22.4 x 16.8 cm (8 13/16 x 6 5/8 inches), this print allows us to appreciate every minute detail up close. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we can't help but feel a sense of connection with these devoted monks from centuries past. Their prayers transcend time and remind us of our shared humanity – our capacity for compassion and remembrance even in moments of loss.
