EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork "Venus and Mars" by Richard Cosway, created around 1790. The piece, rendered in pen and brown ink on paper, measures 22.2x18.1 cm and is housed at the Yale Center for British Art as part of the esteemed Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. The image depicts a scene filled with passion, desire, and forbidden love. In this mythological portrayal, Venus (also known as Aphrodite), the goddess of love and beauty, embraces her lover Mars (Ares), the god of war. Their amorous connection is intensified by Cupid's presence nearby. Cosway skillfully captures their illicit affair through intricate details that convey both sensuality and vulnerability. This drawing delves into themes of eroticism, adultery, and intense emotional connections between two lovers who defy societal norms. As viewers gaze upon this masterpiece, they are transported to a realm where gods reign supreme—a world steeped in mythology and paganism. The artist's mastery lies not only in his ability to depict divine figures but also in evoking human emotions within these mythical characters. With its rich symbolism and exquisite execution, "Venus and Mars" invites contemplation about love's power to transcend boundaries—be it mortal or immortal—and reminds us that even deities can succumb to irresistible passions.
