EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Flaying Marsyas" by Jan van der Straet, also known as Johannes Stradanus. Created between 1585 and 1603, this Netherlandish artist's work demonstrates his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image depicts a scene of intense drama and suffering. Marsyas, a satyr from Greek mythology who dared to challenge Apollo in a musical contest, is shown being flayed alive as punishment for his audacity. The use of pen and brown ink combined with brown and red washes creates a striking contrast that emphasizes the brutality of the act. Van der Straet's skillful technique is further enhanced by the subtle addition of white highlights on paper prepared with red wash. This meticulous attention to light and shadow adds depth to the composition, making it even more visually arresting. Measuring at 21.1 x 31.5 cm (8 5/16 x 12 3/8 in. ), this print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate every intricate detail up close. It serves as a testament not only to Van der Straet's artistic prowess but also to his ability to evoke strong emotions through his work. Whether displayed in an art gallery or adorning the walls of an avid collector, this exquisite piece will undoubtedly captivate viewers with its powerful depiction of human suffering intertwined with mythological symbolism
