EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported into the mythical world of Pygmalion and Galatea, as envisioned by the renowned Spanish artist Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes. Created around 1812-1820, this brush and sepia wash masterpiece measures 20.5 x 14.1 cm (8 1/16 x 5 9/16 in. ), showcasing Goya's exceptional attention to detail. The scene depicts Pygmalion, a talented sculptor from ancient Greece who fell deeply in love with his own creation - Galatea, a statue brought to life by Aphrodite herself. The intensity of Pygmalion's emotions is palpable as he gazes upon Galatea with adoration and disbelief. Goya's masterful use of brushwork and sepia tones adds depth and texture to the composition, enhancing the ethereal quality of this mythological tale. Through delicate strokes and subtle shading, he captures both the vulnerability of Galatea as she awakens to her newfound existence and the overwhelming joy radiating from Pygmalion's face. This artwork serves as a testament to Goya's artistic prowess in capturing human emotion within mythological narratives. It invites us to ponder themes such as love, creation, and transformation while marveling at Goya's ability to breathe life into stone. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Liszt Collection, we are reminded that art has the power not only to depict stories
