EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning oil on canvas painting titled "Juno holding a golden vessel and a moneybag" by Jacob de Backer, or possibly his studio. Measuring 105.4 x 86.8 cm, this artwork is part of a private collection and exudes the essence of the 16th century Flemish art. In this masterpiece, Juno, an ancient Greek mythological figure synonymous with Hera, stands gracefully with divine elegance. Clad in nothing but her own mythical power, she holds a golden vessel and moneybag symbolizing wealth and prosperity. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke as Juno's beauty radiates through the vivid colors adorning her form. The mask beside her hints at the enigmatic nature of mythology while adding an element of intrigue to the composition. This painting transports us back to antiquity, where gods and goddesses reigned supreme over mortal realms. It serves as a testament to the timeless allure of classical mythology that continues to captivate audiences even today. With its rich historical context and masterful execution, this oil painting exemplifies why Jacob de Backer remains celebrated as one of Flanders' finest artists from the 16th century.
