1687 Jan Luyken Personified Seven Deadly Sins Three Men

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to Amsterdam in 1687, where Jan Luyken's artistic genius comes to life. Titled "Sin pursued by three men" this etching showcases the personification of the Seven Deadly Sins with remarkable detail and precision. In this particular scene, sin is depicted as a fleeing figure being relentlessly pursued by three determined men. The top right mark on the print indicates that it belongs to folio one of Luyken's series on the Seven Deadly Sins, adding an intriguing layer of context to its significance. Luyken's mastery shines through in his ability to capture both the physicality and emotional weight of each character. The expressions on their faces convey a sense of urgency and determination, highlighting mankind's relentless pursuit of righteousness while grappling with temptation. The medium used for this artwork is paper etching, which adds depth and texture to every line and stroke. Measuring at just 116mm in height and 67mm in width, this small yet impactful piece invites viewers into a world where morality clashes with human desires. While we cannot overlook the historical value or aesthetic beauty of this photo print, it is important not to mention any commercial use associated with it. Instead, let us appreciate how art has preserved moments like these throughout history, allowing us glimpses into past societies' beliefs and struggles.
