EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness a powerful and dramatic moment in history. The artwork titled "Tarquinius threatens Lucretia" depicts a scene of intense emotion and turmoil. Painted with meticulous detail on an oil canvas measuring 102 x 69 cm, this masterpiece remains unmarked, leaving us to ponder its origins. Created by the talented artist Thoman Weber from Kempten around the years 1535-1570, it now finds its home in Basel. The painting portrays Tarquinius, a Roman prince known for his lustful desires, confronting Lucretia. The tension is palpable as Tarquinius menacingly looms over her while she stands resolute but vulnerable. This pivotal moment captures the essence of betrayal and power dynamics prevalent during ancient times. Weber's skillful use of oil paints brings life to every brushstroke, highlighting the intricate details of each character's expression and clothing. The play of light and shadow adds depth and intensity to this gripping narrative. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we cannot help but be drawn into its emotional gravity. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, human nature continues to grapple with themes such as honor, power struggles, and resilience against adversity.
