EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a masterpiece from the 1600s, believed to be created by an artist associated with Pietro da Cortona. The artwork depicts the biblical story of Lot and his daughters, rendered in exquisite detail using pen and brown ink over black chalk. The delicate strokes are further enhanced with traces of white gouache, adding a subtle touch of brightness to the composition. Measuring at approximately 21.8 x 19.6 cm, this print captures the essence of Italian artistry during that era. The skilled hand behind this work is reminiscent of Pietro da Cortona's signature style, known for its dramatic flair and grandiose scenes. Lot and His Daughters tell a tale rooted in ancient times when Lot's family fled from Sodom before its destruction. In this scene, we witness the daughters' desperate attempt to ensure their father's lineage continues by intoxicating him with wine. The combination of intricate detailing and emotional storytelling makes this piece truly remarkable. It serves as a testament to the artistic prowess prevalent during Italy's golden age.
