EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable engraving attributed to Giorgio Ghisi, an Italian artist from Mantua. The artwork depicts Seated Neptune, the Roman god of the sea, holding a conch shell to his mouth. Accompanying him is a seated Triton and another figure emerging from the water in the bottom right corner. The intricate details of this piece are truly mesmerizing. From Neptune's regal pose and flowing beard to the delicate engravings on his trident, every element exudes elegance and power. The conch shell held up to his mouth symbolizes his control over the seas and serves as a reminder of his divine authority. The presence of Triton adds depth to this composition, emphasizing Neptune's role as ruler over all marine life. With its graceful lines and lifelike depiction, this engraving transports viewers into a mythical underwater realm where gods reign supreme. Attributed to Giorgio Ghisi but inspired by Perino del Vaga and Pietro Buonaccorsi's works in Florence and Rome respectively, this print captures both artistic mastery and historical significance. Its dimensions of 9 1/8 x 6 1/8 inches (232 x 156 cm) make it an ideal size for display or study. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply appreciate classical mythology, this enchanting print will undoubtedly add sophistication and intrigue to any space it graces.
