EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "View of the Surroundings of Narni in Lombardy, 1770" takes us back to the enchanting landscapes of 18th-century Europe. Created by Simon Fokke, a renowned engraver of his time, this piece showcases the beauty and grandeur of Lombardy, Italy. The scene unfolds with a majestic river flowing through a rocky gorge. The cascading waterfall adds an element of drama and awe to the landscape. A group of women can be seen on the riverbank engaged in fishing activities, their presence adding life and movement to the serene setting. Fokke's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke engraved on this masterpiece. The intricate lettering along with carefully etched rocks and cliffs create a sense of depth and realism that transports viewers into this romantic era. As we admire this artwork from centuries ago, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical significance. This print captures an important moment during the Enlightenment period when exploration and scientific discovery were at their peak. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their heritage collection, Fokke's work continues to inspire art enthusiasts worldwide. It serves as a testament to his skillful craftsmanship while offering us a glimpse into an era long gone but forever preserved through his engravings.
