1764 First State Grasse Mythological Scene
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us to a mesmerizing mythological scene, depicting Diana seducing Callisto. Created in 1764 by an unknown artist, this etching captures the essence of this ancient tale with remarkable detail and finesse. The composition showcases Diana, the Roman goddess of hunting and chastity, as she cunningly entices Callisto, one of her nymphs. The delicate lines and intricate shading bring life to their figures, evoking a sense of movement and emotion within the artwork. Originally inspired by Pietro Liberi's Italian masterpiece from the 17th century, this French print beautifully pays homage to its predecessor while adding its own unique flair. The first state of this etching is presented on a sheet measuring approximately 6 5/16 x 4 5/16 inches (161 x 11 cm), making it a compact yet impactful piece that can easily be admired up close. Printed in Grasse and Paris during its time, this work represents not only artistic excellence but also cultural exchange between nations. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of mythology in inspiring generations across borders. As we gaze upon this enchanting image captured by Artokoloro, we are reminded of the timeless allure found within classical tales. This print invites us into an ethereal world where gods and mortals intertwine—a visual feast for art enthusiasts seeking both beauty and historical significance.
