EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Hans Holbein the Younger's masterpiece, "Portrait of the Artist's Wife with the Two Eldest Children" created around 1528/29. The artwork, rendered in a mixed technique on paper, is meticulously cut out along the figures' contours and mounted on limewood. Measuring 79.4 x 64.7 cm, it exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. Although not explicitly marked, the artwork bears a date inscription on its right bank: "152 []". Holbein himself is credited as the creator of this remarkable piece, born in Augsburg around 1497/98 and later settling in London until his passing in 1543. The portrait captures a tender moment within a family dynamic as it portrays the artist's wife alongside their two eldest children. Each figure emanates gracefulness through their delicate features and refined expressions. The meticulous attention to detail highlights Holbein's exceptional talent for capturing human emotions. Displayed against a neutral background, this composition allows viewers to focus solely on the subjects themselves. Through his masterful use of mixed techniques and careful execution of each contour, Holbein succeeds in immortalizing this intimate familial bond. As part of Liszt Collection's vast array of artistic treasures, this print serves as both an aesthetic delight and historical testament to one of Hans Holbein's most celebrated works – forever preserving its beauty for generations to come.
