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 and vibrant colors bring to life three powerful gods - Neptune, Ceres, and Apollo.
Neptune, the god of the sea, is depicted with his trident in hand, exuding strength and authority. Ceres, the goddess of agriculture, is adorned with a crown of wheat and holds a bundle of grain symbolizing fertility and abundance. Apollo, the god of music and poetry, is shown playing his lyre surrounded by his muses.
Each figure is meticulously crafted with precision and care, showcasing Bertuch's talent as both a publisher and artist. The rich history and symbolism behind each deity are beautifully captured in this print, making it a valuable educational tool for children to learn about classical mythology.
Friedrich Johann Bertuch's dedication to creating an encyclopedia for children filled with illustrations on various subjects including mythology speaks volumes about his commitment to education and enlightenment. This print serves as a testament to his legacy as a man of arts who sought to inspire young minds through visual storytelling.
