EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary Hungarian pianist and composer, The Abbe. Franz (Ferencz) Liszt, during a significant moment in his illustrious career. Taken shortly after his third and final visit to England, where he mesmerized audiences with his extraordinary musical talent, Liszt is depicted here as he played for none other than Queen Victoria herself at Windsor Castle. The image beautifully portrays Liszt's commanding presence and undeniable charisma, which made him one of the most celebrated musicians of his time. His deep passion for music shines through as he effortlessly commands the piano keys, enchanting all those fortunate enough to witness this historic performance. Tragically, just months after this memorable encounter with royalty, Liszt's life came to an end on July 31st, 1886. This poignant photograph serves as a lasting tribute to a true master of composition and virtuosity. Created by renowned cartoonist Spy (Leslie Ward), this artwork originally appeared in Vanity Fair on May 15th, 1886. Through clever strokes of satire and artistry, Spy captured not only Liszt's physical likeness but also conveyed the essence of his musical genius. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in classical music history – when two great forces collided: The brilliance of Franz Liszt and the majesty of Queen Victoria's court at Windsor Castle.
