EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases Plate 8 of Egyptians Drowning in the Red Sea Battles, a powerful depiction inspired by the Old Testament. Created by Antonio Tempesta, an Italian artist born in Florence in 1555 and later based in Rome until his death in 1630, this etching captures a pivotal moment filled with drama and emotion. The scene unfolds as waves crash against Egyptian soldiers desperately struggling to stay afloat amidst the raging sea. With masterful skill, Tempesta portrays their fear and despair through intricate details that bring this ancient biblical tale to life. The composition is both dynamic and hauntingly beautiful, drawing viewers into the chaos of battle while highlighting the divine intervention that led to Egypt's downfall. Measuring approximately 7 7/8 x 11 1/8 inches (20 x 28.3 cm), this print preserves every delicate line and shading meticulously crafted by Tempesta's hand. Its historical significance lies not only in its portrayal of an iconic event but also as a testament to Tempesta's artistic prowess during the late Renaissance period. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece, let yourself be transported back centuries ago when faith collided with fate on those treacherous waters. This print serves as a window into history, inviting contemplation on themes of power, redemption, and human vulnerability – timeless lessons that continue to resonate today.
