EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The nine Muses with Pegasus and Mount Helicon" an exquisite piece of art from the medieval period. Created between 1485 and 1499, this anonymous masterpiece can be found in the esteemed collection of The Morgan Library & Museum in New York. The image transports us to a world steeped in Greek mythology, where the majestic Pegasus soars above Mount Helicon. This illuminated manuscript, known as Argumentum by Guarinus Veronensis, beautifully depicts the muses alongside their divine companion. These goddesses of inspiration and creativity are adorned with ethereal beauty, each representing a different artistic discipline. As we gaze upon this fine art composition on watercolour parchment, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage that flourished during the Middle Ages. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life an allegory that intertwines literature, mythology, and art. In this scene, we witness not only the muses but also Corycian nymphs gracing Mount Helicon—a sacred place associated with poetic inspiration. The artist skillfully captures their gracefulness while paying homage to Guarinus Veronensis' work. This print serves as a testament to the enduring power of medieval illuminated manuscripts—precious artifacts that continue to captivate audiences today. It allows us to appreciate both the technical mastery behind such creations and their profound significance within historical contexts.
