EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the mythical world of Psyche as she endures one of the challenging ordeals set by Venus. Painted by Giulio Romano in 1528, this lunette from the Sala di Amore e Psiche showcases his mastery of oil on stucco technique. The scene unfolds with intensity and emotion as Psyche finds herself at the mercy of Venus' wrath. The artist skillfully captures her anger and rage, evident in every stroke of his brush. Surrounding Psyche are cherubs and putti, their innocent faces contrasting sharply with her turmoil. As our eyes wander across the painting, we cannot help but notice a coffering motif adorning the background. This intricate design adds depth and complexity to the composition while symbolizing a sense of entrapment for Psyche. Romano's work delves into human emotions and feelings, exploring themes such as furor and sin. Through his artistry, he invites us to reflect upon our own struggles against adversity and how they shape our character. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate Romano's Mannerist style up close. With its impeccable details captured by Raffaello Bencini's lens, it transports us back in time to experience this powerful moment in art history firsthand.
