EDITORS COMMENTS
Frans Wouters' Venus Bewailing the Slain Adonis, painted between 1650 and 1659, captures the poignant moment from Greek mythology when Venus, the goddess of love, mourns the death of her beloved Adonis. The scene is set in a woodland idyll, with Venus cradling the lifeless body of Adonis, who lies at her feet, his blood staining the grass. The heartbroken goddess is surrounded by various animals, including a swan, a dog, and a cupid, symbolizing love and loss. The painting's rich colors and intricate details showcase the Baroque era's mastery of oil on wood techniques. The tragic tale of Venus and Adonis has been a popular subject in art since ancient times, and this work by Frans Wouters is a moving testament to the enduring power of love and loss. The painting is a national treasure of Denmark, housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Denmark) in Copenhagen, and is a must-see for anyone interested in art, mythology, or the history of European painting.
