EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 27: Triumphal Arch, Elevation of the Back - A Majestic Tribute to Roman Mythology and History In this print from 1636, we are transported back to ancient Rome through the artistic vision of Johannes Meursius and Willem van der Beke. Plate 27 showcases a triumphal arch, an architectural marvel adorned with allegorical figures and scenes that pay homage to Roman mythology and history. The intricate details of this engraving bring forth a sense of grandeur as we witness the elevation of the arch's back. Surmounting it are magnificent allegorical figures, representing concepts such as power, victory, wisdom, and beauty. Their graceful poses evoke a sense of awe while their presence adds depth to the overall composition. As our eyes wander across the archway, we encounter meticulously engraved scenes depicting legendary tales from Roman mythology. These stories come alive before us – gods engaging in epic battles against mythical creatures; heroes embarking on heroic quests; emperors leading triumphant armies into glorious victories. This print is not just a mere depiction but also serves as a testament to Flanders' rich cultural heritage during the 17th century. It invites us into an art centre or gallery where visitors can immerse themselves in historical narratives brought forth by talented artists like Meursius and van der Beke. Let this remarkable piece transport you back in time as you explore its intricate details – from majestic horses galloping beneath triumphal arches to divine deities bestowing blessings upon mortal beings. Immerse yourself in this fusion of artistry and history that captures both your imagination and admiration for ancient Rome's splendorous past.
