EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a bygone era, specifically to the Palais de San Donato in Corte. The image showcases an exquisite wood engraving titled "Vanitas vanitatis et omnia vanitas" created by Josse de Corte, a renowned artist who lived between 1627 and 1679. The intricate details of this piece are truly mesmerizing. Every line and curve is expertly carved into the wood, bringing to life a profound message about the fleeting nature of worldly possessions. The Latin phrase "Vanitas vanitatis et omnia vanitas" meaning "Vanity of vanities; all is vanity" serves as a poignant reminder that material wealth and earthly pleasures are ultimately transitory. The composition itself exudes elegance and sophistication. The delicate engravings depict various symbolic elements such as skulls, hourglasses, flowers, and musical instruments – all representing different aspects of human existence. These symbols invite viewers to reflect upon their own mortality while contemplating the impermanence of life's joys.

Whether displayed in your home or office space, this stunning wood engraving invites contempl
