Putti as Goatherds
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite 18th century artwork, featuring a charming scene of cherubic figures engaged in the pastoral activity of goat herding. The creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, adding to the allure of this mysterious work of art. This beautiful black and white chalk drawing on blue and ivory laid paper is a testament to the artistic prowess of the Flemish or possibly Italian artist of the time. The use of black and white chalk on blue laid paper creates a striking contrast, enhancing the delicate details of the putti, or cherubs, as they tend to their goats in a serene and idyllic setting. This artwork, which is part of the vast collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, is a rare depiction of the concept of amorini, or cupid figures, in an agricultural context. The putti, with their angelic faces and playful expressions, are shown in their role as goatherds, adding a whimsical touch to the traditional farming scene. The "Putti as Goatherds" drawing is a fascinating glimpse into the artistic heritage of the past, offering a glimpse into the cultural values and artistic trends of the eighteenth century. Its historical significance and artistic merit make it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, particularly those with a focus on European art of the period. Whether you are an art aficionado, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of art, this enchanting print is sure to capture your imagination and leave you with a sense of wonder and delight. The "Putti as Goatherds" is a timeless work of art that transcends the boundaries of language and culture, inviting us to explore the depths of human creativity and the enduring power of art to inspire and delight.
