EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting engraving from the 17th century, we are transported to a mystical woodland where a young woman shares an intimate moment with a mythical creature. The English School artist skillfully captures the ethereal beauty of this scene, as the woman delicately caresses a unicorn with tenderness and awe. The print is based on Annibale Carracci's fresco ceiling in the Farnese Gallery, showcasing his mastery of classical artistry. The young woman's clothing reflects the fashion of that era, adding authenticity to her presence within this magical realm. Surrounded by towering trees, their branches reaching towards the heavens, we are reminded of nature's power and wonder. This image not only captivates our imagination but also highlights humanity's fascination with myth and legend. The intricate details in this engraving demonstrate both artistic excellence and scientific accuracy. The inclusion of botanical elements suggests an interest in botany and natural history prevalent during that time period. It serves as a reminder that art has long been intertwined with scientific methods and exploration. This print invites us to embrace our sense of wonderment while reminding us of the enduring allure found within ancient myths and legends.
