EDITORS COMMENTS
Tagus, 1586" by the renowned Flemish artist Philip Galle, transports us back to the 16th century with its intricate depiction of the Tagus or Tajo River in Portugal. The image, part of Galle's "Sea and River Gods" series, showcases the rich aquatic life teeming in the river, with various fish species, mollusks, and even a seashell prominently featured. Galle masterfully captures the essence of the river god, Guy of the Tagus, who is depicted standing proudly on the riverbank, nude and muscular, holding a trident in one hand and a cup in the other. The god is often associated with the protection and prosperity of the river and its surrounding lands. The image also highlights the importance of maritime trade during the Renaissance period, with numerous ships anchored at the river's edge, exchanging goods and merchandise. The coastal area is bustling with activity, with men loading and unloading cargo, and others engaging in various water activities. This engraving is a testament to the artistic and cultural heritage of Flanders, Belgium, and Europe during the 16th century. It showcases the interconnectedness of mythology, religion, geography, and commerce during this period, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or historical study." The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is proud to house this magnificent work by Philip Galle in its collection, allowing future generations to appreciate the artistic and historical significance of this image.
