EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases Plate 12 of a mesmerizing engraving titled "Psyche Sisters Persuade Serpent Sleeping". The artwork, created by the Master of the Die, an Italian artist active in Rome during the 16th century, is believed to be inspired by Michiel Coxie's work. In this scene, we witness a moment of great tension and intrigue. Two sisters, presumably Psyche's siblings, are seen delicately coaxing a slumbering serpent. Their expressions reveal both determination and trepidation as they attempt to persuade the creature into submission. The serpent itself lies peacefully on a bed of lush greenery, its scales shimmering under dappled sunlight. The composition exudes an air of mystery and enchantment that draws viewers into this mythical world. The delicate lines and intricate details characteristic of engravings bring life to each element within the frame. From the folds in their garments to every scale on the serpent's body, no detail has been overlooked. Measuring approximately 7 11/16 x 8 7/8 inches (19.5 x 22.5 cm), this print captures alluring nuances that transport us back to ancient times when fables like these were woven into our collective imagination. Whether displayed as part of an art collection or admired individually for its artistic merit, this remarkable print invites contemplation and appreciation for both its technical mastery and timeless storytelling prowess.
