Frey: A Mythological Goddess of Fertility, Sun, and Rain In the realm of Nordic-Germanic mythology, Frey stands as a revered goddess embodying fertility, the sun's warmth, and the life-giving rain. This 19th-century line engraving captures her essence beautifully. Volks Theater in Vienna comes alive with pencil sketches and watercolors depicting Frey's ethereal presence. As if emerging from a clear sky, two forms float gracefully towards us in this captivating color lithograph. Jacob Frey finds his name etched on an exquisite bookplate from 1834. Ink and vibrant colors adorn this delicate paper creation that pays homage to the goddess who shares his surname. Charles Balthazar Julien Fevret de Saint-Memin immortalizes Frey through his artistry in 1805. His creation portrays her divine beauty for all to admire. Robert van Audenaerde skillfully brings mythological tales to life with his artistic prowess. "Rebecca and Eliezer, " "David and Bathsheba, " these timeless stories find their visual representation under Audenaerde's skilled hand. Johann Jakob Frey the Elder showcases his talent by capturing intimate moments between The Virgin, Joseph, and Young Jesus. These paintings radiate love and devotion while honoring the divine family they depict. Tuccia emerges from Johann Jakob Frey's brushstrokes in 1720—a stunning portrayal of strength amidst adversity. Cleopatra also graces our eyes with her regal presence captured by this talented artist during the same period. "The Wheat & The Chaff" tells a story beyond its title; it reflects upon life's choices through Johann Jakob Frey's masterful strokes in 1728—a testament to both his creativity and philosophical depth. Jean Pierre de Frey transports us back into biblical times with "Simeon in the Temple. " Through intricate details carefully crafted, we witness a profound moment of spiritual significance.
