Abraham Bloteling Amor Crying Fleeing Knee Leaning Leave Literature Love Lover Shepherd Shepherdess Sign Sitting Stop Tree Trying Wants Guarini Unhappy
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Fleeing Shepherd" created by Abraham Bloteling, Zacharias Webber II, and possibly Pierre Marteau around 1677, we are transported to a scene straight out of Guarini's pastoral masterpiece, "Pastor Fido". The image portrays a shepherdess sitting under the shade of a majestic tree while her lover desperately tries to stop her from leaving. The emotions captured in this artwork are palpable. The shepherd's face is filled with anguish as he leans on his knee, crying out for his beloved's love. His heartbroken expression tells the tale of an unhappy love that has pushed him to flee alongside his sheep. Meanwhile, the shepherdess appears torn between her desire to stay and her yearning for freedom. Her pensive gaze suggests inner turmoil as she contemplates whether to follow her heart or heed societal expectations. Abraham Bloteling and Zacharias Webber II have masterfully depicted the intensity of these emotions through their intricate engravings. Every line and detail adds depth and richness to the narrative unfolding before our eyes. As viewers, we find ourselves drawn into this timeless story of unrequited love and personal sacrifice. Quint Lox skillfully captures this essence in his photo print, allowing us to appreciate the artistry behind these historical engravings.
