EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite statue of Urania, the muse of astronomy, accompanied by a pair of compasses. Created by Francois-Anne David in 1787, this copperplate engraving is a true masterpiece from the Museum de Florence collection. Urania stands proudly as a symbol of knowledge and inspiration in the realm of astronomy. With her graceful posture and serene expression, she embodies the essence of classical art and Roman mythology. The intricate details captured in this sculpture highlight David's exceptional talent as both an artist and an engraver. The addition of the pair of compasses emphasizes Urania's connection to science and precision. It serves as a reminder that astronomy requires meticulous calculations and measurements to explore the mysteries of our universe. Drawing inspiration from Roman statues, engraved stones, and medals found within the collections at Museum de Florence and the cabinet of curiosities belonging to the Grand Duke of Tuscany, David skillfully brings these ancient artifacts back to life through his illustrations. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time to Rome where gods reigned supreme. This print not only celebrates art but also pays homage to antiquities that have shaped our understanding of history. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with a visual treasure that allows us to appreciate both mythological tales and scientific exploration through one captivating piece.
