EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Allegory of Justice" a masterpiece created between 1582 and 1585. Housed in a private collection, this artwork belongs to the Florentine School and exemplifies the Mannerist style. The painting depicts Iustitia, also known as Lady Justice, who is revered as the goddess of divine retribution in Greek mythology. In this allegorical representation, Iustitia stands tall with her scales of justice held delicately in one hand while clutching a sword in the other. Her blindfold symbolizes impartiality and fairness within legal systems. Surrounding her are elements that allude to history and literature, emphasizing their connection to law. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Poppi Francesco Morandini (1544-1597), an Italian painter renowned for his skillful execution of oil on wood paintings. Through his brushstrokes, he brings life to Nemesis, another figure from Greek mythology associated with retribution. This print not only captures the exquisite details of Morandini's work but also invites viewers into a world where justice reigns supreme. Whether you have an interest in art or legal history, this image serves as a reminder of our collective pursuit for fairness and equilibrium within society.
