EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite door knocker print, created in the late 17th or early 18th century, showcases a captivating scene of the ancient deities Triton, Nereid, and putti. The unknown artist masterfully depicted these mythological figures in pen and brown ink with delicate accents of blue, grey, and white gouache. Triton, the god of the sea, is prominently featured, blowing his conch shell trumpet to announce the arrival of visitors. His muscular form is gracefully balanced by the ethereal presence of Nereid, the sea nymph, who tenderly touches his shoulder. Surrounding them are playful putti, or cherubs, who add a whimsical touch to the scene with their mischievous antics. The intricate design of this door knocker reflects the rich cultural heritage of the 17th and 18th centuries, a time when Italy was a center of artistic innovation. The use of pen and ink drawing, combined with the subtle color accents, creates a stunning visual effect that captures the imagination. This print is a testament to the enduring appeal of mythology and the artistic mastery of the past. It is a treasure to be admired in art centers and galleries, inspiring awe and wonder in all who behold it. Whether displayed in a private collection or as part of an exhibition, this door knocker print is a cherished piece of history, inviting us to explore the depths of our artistic and religious heritage.
