EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Stix" from the series "Nymphs" by the renowned Flemish engraver Philip Galle (1537-1612), dates back to the 1580s. The print showcases a water nymph, identified as Stix, seated gracefully on a seashell in a serene aquatic environment. The black and white contrast of the engraving adds an ethereal and timeless quality to the piece. Stix, a figure from Greek mythology, is often depicted as a water nymph who personifies the sound of flowing water. She is typically portrayed as a beautiful, naked woman, with long flowing hair and an enchanting smile. In this print, Galle masterfully captures the essence of Stix, encapsulating her playful and seductive nature. The print is a testament to the artistic prowess of the Flemish School during the Renaissance period. Galle's intricate engraving technique is evident in the delicate lines and shading that bring Stix and her surroundings to life. The print was created during a time when the Netherlands and Flanders were at the forefront of artistic innovation, and Galle's work reflects the influence of artists such as Albrecht Dürer and Lucas van Leiden. Today, this stunning print is part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a renowned institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing the world's artistic heritage. The print serves as a reminder of the enduring beauty and power of art to transport us to another world, and to inspire and delight us for generations to come.
