EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the pastoral world of Virgil's Eclogue I. The scene depicted is one of intense action and bravery as a shepherd fearlessly chases away a menacing wolf. Created in 1821 by the renowned British artist William Blake, this wood engraving captures the essence of the ancient poem with its intricate details and masterful composition. The image measures a mere 3.5 x 7.4 cm, yet it manages to convey a sense of grandeur and power through its skillful execution. Blake's use of light and shadow adds depth to the scene, emphasizing both the vulnerability of the shepherd and his unwavering determination to protect his flock. As we gaze upon this artwork, we cannot help but be drawn into its narrative. We feel the tension in the air as man confronts beast, witnessing an act that symbolizes courage in the face of danger. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern lives, there are still battles to be fought and conquered. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to bring home a piece of art history while also immersing ourselves in classical literature. Whether displayed on our walls or shared with friends, it serves as an exquisite reminder that beauty can be found even within moments of struggle and triumph
