EDITORS COMMENTS
Trionfo Di Virtu, Libro Novo... page 16 (recto), 1563, is a stunning woodcut print by the renowned 16th-century Italian artist Matteo Pagano. This artwork, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, showcases the Triumph of Virtue, a powerful and enduring theme in Italian literature and art. The print, which is part of a larger illustrated book, depicts a grand procession of virtues, each represented by a regal figure, making their way towards the central figure of Virtue, who stands triumphantly atop a chariot, crowned and holding a banner inscribed with the words "Fede Matteo Della." The virtues are accompanied by various symbols and emblems, such as a shield for fortitude, an anchor for hope, and a palm branch for victory. The intricate and detailed woodcut technique used by Matteo Pagano brings the scene to life, with each figure and symbol expertly rendered in black and white. The use of banners and flags adds a sense of dynamism and movement to the composition, while the overall design is both elegant and ornate. This print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Italy during the Renaissance period, and serves as an important reminder of the enduring power of art to inspire and captivate audiences. The Metropolitan Museum of Art is fortunate to have this rare and beautiful work in its collection, where it continues to be a source of fascination and wonder for visitors from around the world.
