EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Polyhymnia" by the renowned Dutch artist Hendrik Goltzius, hails from the latter half of the 16th century. The image is part of Goltzius' seminal work, "The Nine Muses," and specifically appears as plate eight. Polyhymnia, one of the nine Muses in Greek mythology, is depicted here as a serene and elegant woman. She is the muse of poetry, music, and eloquence. In this rendition, she is shown holding a scroll, symbolizing the written word, and a lyre, representing music. Her tranquil expression and the gentle folds of her robe convey a sense of deep contemplation and inspiration. Goltzius masterfully captures the essence of Polyhymnia with his intricate engraving technique. The contrast between the white robe and the dark background adds depth and dimension to the image. The artist's skillful use of line and shading creates a three-dimensional effect, further enhancing the overall impact of the print. This engraving is a testament to the artistic prowess of Hendrik Goltzius during the Dutch Renaissance. It showcases his ability to bring mythological figures to life through his art, while also demonstrating the influence of classical Greek culture on European art during this period. Today, this precious work of art is part of the permanent collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. The image of Polyhymnia serves as a reminder of the enduring power of art to transport us to other worlds and to connect us with the rich heritage of human creativity.
