EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving from Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" transports us back to the ancient world of Greek and Roman mythology. The intricate details of the figures depicted - Diane, Vulcan, and Minerva - showcase the craftsmanship and artistry of Friedrich Johann Bertuch, a renowned German publisher and man of arts.
Diane, known as Artemis in Greek mythology, is the goddess of hunting and wilderness. Her graceful form is captured in three different poses, each exuding power and beauty. Vulcan, the god of fire and metalworking, stands tall with his hammer in hand, symbolizing strength and craftsmanship. And Minerva, the goddess of wisdom and warfare, radiates intelligence and strategic prowess.
The rich colors used to bring these gods to life add depth and vibrancy to this historical print. Each figure tells a story through their posture and expression, inviting viewers to delve into the myths that have captivated generations for centuries.
As we gaze upon this enchanting artwork from 1805 Weimar, we are reminded of the enduring legacy of classical mythology and its influence on art throughout history. This print serves as a timeless tribute to these iconic deities who continue to inspire awe and wonder in our modern world.
