1694 Craftsman Fisherman Handicrafts Jan Luyken Menselyk Bedryf Series Title Title Work

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable piece of art titled "Visser De Visser" by Jan Luyken, created in Amsterdam back in 1694. The artwork is part of the larger series called "Menselyk Bedryf" which translates to "Human Occupations". In this particular etching, we are transported to a scene where a skilled craftsman is diligently working as a fisherman. The intricate details and precision captured by Luyken's hand bring this moment to life on paper. We can almost feel the rhythm of the waves and hear the seagulls squawking above. The artist's ability to capture not only the physicality but also the essence of human labor is truly commendable. Through his masterful technique, he invites us into an intimate glimpse of everyday life during that era. Measuring at just 140 mm high and 86 mm wide, this small yet powerful artwork holds immense historical significance. It serves as a testament to both Luyken's talent and his dedication to documenting various handicrafts prevalent in Amsterdam at that time. As we admire this stunning print, let it remind us of our shared humanity and appreciation for craftsmanship throughout history. Let it transport us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand how these artisans shaped their world through their skillful workmanship.
