EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a world of Renaissance elegance with 'The Nymph at the Fountain', a captivating oil on panel painting by Lucas Cranach the Elder. Created in 1530, this masterpiece showcases the German artist's mastery of color and composition.
In this serene scene, a beautiful nymph reclines beside a tranquil fountain pool, her body bathed in soft light. Her gaze is cast downward, lost in thought as she gazes at her own reflection or perhaps contemplates the beauty of nature surrounding her.
Cranach's use of oil paints brings depth and luminosity to the piece, with delicate brushstrokes capturing every nuance of his subject's skin tone. The nymph's pose exudes a sense of relaxation and contentment, inviting the viewer to join her in this idyllic setting.
This stunning work is part of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection at Museo Nacional Thyssen Bornemisza, Madrid, where it can be admired alongside other masterpieces from European art. 'The Nymph at the Fountain' serves as a testament to Cranach's skill and influence during his time, blending classical Greek mythology with Renaissance sensibilities.
