EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Mephistopheles presents Martha Goethe Faust 1825-27" is a remarkable piece of art created by the renowned French artist Eugene Delacroix. The print, part of the Liszt Collection and produced by Artokoloro, showcases Delacroix's exceptional talent and his ability to capture intense emotions through his artwork. In this lithograph, we witness a pivotal scene from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's iconic play "Faust". Mephistopheles, the devilish character who tempts Faust into making a pact with him, presents Martha - one of Faust's love interests - to him. The composition is filled with dramatic tension as Mephistopheles stands tall and confident while presenting Martha to Faust. Delacroix's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and intensity to the image. The intricate details in Martha's dress and facial expression convey her inner turmoil as she becomes entangled in this supernatural encounter. Meanwhile, Faust appears both intrigued and conflicted by Mephistopheles' offer. Measuring approximately 10 3/8 x 8 inches (26.4 x 20.3 cm), this second state lithograph allows us to appreciate Delacroix's artistic prowess on a smaller scale without compromising its impact. It serves as a testament to his ability to bring complex characters from literature alive through visual storytelling. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in
