The Close of the Silver Age
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Lucas Cranach, the Elder is a captivating Renaissance masterpiece that transports us back to ancient Greek mythology. This thought-provoking painting, dating back to around 1530, depicts a pivotal moment in time when the mythical Silver Age comes to an end. In this allegorical scene, we witness a beautifully rendered man and woman representing humanity during this era. The artist skillfully portrays their nude bodies with meticulous attention to detail, emphasizing their vulnerability and natural beauty. Symbolizing jealousy and its destructive consequences, luscious fruits surround them as they stand amidst an idyllic landscape. Cranach's work draws inspiration from Hesiod's "Works and Days" where he describes the different ages of mankind. The Silver Age was believed to be a period of peace and prosperity but marred by envy and mistrust among people. Through his artistry, Cranach captures both the physicality of human form and the complex emotions that define our existence. This remarkable piece can be found in the esteemed collection of London's National Gallery. As you gaze upon it, allow yourself to delve into ancient literature and immerse yourself in this timeless tale of love, jealousy, and humanity's eternal struggle against its own flaws.
