EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to the 1400s and witness a haunting scene of torment. The artwork, titled "St. Anthony tormented by the Devils" was created by Martin Schongauer, a talented German artist who lived between 1450 and 1491. The engraving depicts St. Anthony, a revered Christian saint known for his resistance against temptations and battles with demons. In this particular portrayal, he is shown surrounded by grotesque devils that relentlessly taunt him. Their menacing presence is palpable as they twist and turn around him in an attempt to break his spirit. Schongauer's attention to detail is evident in every line etched onto the sheet measuring approximately 29.9 x 22.1 cm (11 3/4 x 8 11/16 in. ). The composition exudes a sense of chaos and despair while also showcasing the artist's mastery of capturing emotions through intricate engravings. This powerful image serves as a reminder of humanity's constant struggle against temptation and evil forces that seek to undermine our faith or inner strength. It invites us to reflect on our own battles with personal demons and find solace in St. Anthony's unwavering determination. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we cannot help but be drawn into its dark allure, appreciating both its artistic brilliance and its ability to evoke deep contemplation within us all.
