EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 17th century, titled "Plate 4: two pilgrims observing ruins to right, one pointing towards the right, a shepherd and a herd of cattle in center background". The image is part of Stefano della Bella's collection called "Various landscapes (Divers paysages), ca. 1641" showcasing his mastery in etching. In this picturesque countryside setting, two pilgrims stand side by side as they gaze upon ancient ruins to their right. One of them points excitedly towards the direction of the ruins, perhaps sharing an intriguing discovery with his companion. Behind them lies a vast expanse where a shepherd tends to his flock of cattle, creating an idyllic pastoral atmosphere. The intricate details captured by della Bella transport us back in time to witness the beauty and serenity that once existed within these fortifications. The crumbling walls and weathered stones speak volumes about history's passage and evoke feelings of nostalgia for days gone by. As we admire this Italian landscape through della Bella's lens, we are reminded not only of our connection to nature but also our spiritual journey as pilgrims seeking meaning and enlightenment. This print serves as a testament to the enduring power of religion throughout centuries. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece represents just one facet of Stefano della Bella's remarkable talent for capturing both architectural grandeur and human emotion in his works.
