EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of two different eras in Greece, showcasing the Shepherd of ancient Morea or Peloponnese playing a pipe near his goats and a troubadour of modern Greece playing a flute-like instrument near a fountain for a pipe-smoking audience. The contrast between the traditional shepherd tending to his flock and the modern troubadour entertaining onlookers is striking.
The hand-colored copperplate engraving from Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" transports us back in time to witness these scenes unfold before our eyes. The attention to detail in the illustration brings each character to life, from the shepherd's rugged appearance to the troubadour's animated performance.
Friedrich Johann Bertuch, known for his encyclopedia for children, has beautifully captured these moments in Greek history with 1,200 engraved plates that cover various subjects such as natural history, science, costume, and mythology. This particular print serves as a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate the cultural richness and diversity of Greece through art.
As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, we are reminded of the timeless traditions and customs that have shaped Greek society over centuries. The juxtaposition of old and new creates a sense of continuity and evolution within Greek culture, making this image truly captivating and thought-provoking.
