EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Frontispiece Statue Minerva, a remarkable work of art created around 1748. The etching sheet measures an impressive 24 15/16 by 19 7/16 inches (or approximately 63.3 by 49.4 centimeters), allowing for intricate details to be captured with precision. The statue itself is a testament to the genius of Giovanni Battista Piranesi, an Italian artist born in Mogliano Veneto in 1720 and who lived until his passing in Rome in 1778. Piranesi's mastery shines through this piece as he expertly captures the essence and grandeur of Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom and strategic warfare. In this frontispiece, Minerva stands tall and proud, exuding strength and intelligence. Her gaze is focused yet serene, embodying her role as a guardian deity. The meticulous etching technique employed by Piranesi brings out every delicate contour of her figure while also highlighting the intricate details adorning her armor. As we admire this stunning print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back to a time when classical mythology was revered and celebrated through art. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and invites us to appreciate the skillful craftsmanship that went into creating such masterpieces.
