EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the intriguing artwork titled "Large Sacrifice to Priapus" created by Jacopo de Barbari in the late 15th or early 16th century. This engraving showcases a scene from Greek mythology, depicting a ritualistic sacrifice to the god of fertility, Priapus. In this image, we see a group of people gathered around an ancient temple adorned with laurel wreaths and burning incense. The central focus is on a statue of Priapus, standing tall amidst the flames. His presence exudes power and divinity as he holds his iconic attribute - an erect phallus symbolizing male virility. Both men and women are present in this sacred ceremony, dressed in drapery that adds an ethereal quality to the scene. Among them are children and infants, emphasizing the importance of fertility within this religious context. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this engraving - from the intricate leaf patterns on the laurel crowns to the delicate folds of clothing worn by each figure. The composition evokes a sense of reverence for nature and its role in human life. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art Washington, this artwork serves as a testament to Renaissance artistry and its exploration of mythological themes. It invites viewers to contemplate ancient rituals while appreciating Jacopo de Barbari's skillful craftsmanship that brings these stories to life through sculpture-like engravings like this one.
