Three Caryatids Supporting a Basket
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite 17th-century antique print, featuring three female figures in the form of ancient Greek architectural decorations known as Caryatids. The creators of this masterpiece are attributed to three renowned artists of Flanders: Unknown, Philip Fruytiers, Jacob Jordaens, and Peter Paul Rubens, with Jan Boeckhorst likely contributing as a draftsman. This artwork, currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, showcases the artists' exceptional skill in depicting the human form and their deep understanding of classical culture. The Caryatids, dressed in flowing robes, support a large basket with an air of grace and strength, reflecting the artistic and historical significance of this architectural feature. The print is executed in pen and brown ink with brush and brown wash on buff laid paper, laid down on cream laid card. The intricate details and subtle color palette bring the figures to life, inviting viewers to appreciate the rich heritage and artistic innovation of the Flemish school during this period. The three artists, each renowned in their own right, collaborated on this work, showcasing the interconnectedness of the artistic community in Flanders during the 17th century. The print is a testament to the enduring influence of ancient Greek art and the artists' ability to adapt and reinterpret it for contemporary audiences. This beautiful work of art is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, architecture, and the cultural heritage of Flanders. Its presence in the Art Institute of Chicago's collection is a reminder of the institution's commitment to preserving and showcasing the world's artistic treasures.
