EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite painting "Angelica and Medoro" by Jacques Blanchard. Created around 1630, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 121.6x175.9 cm and is housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, USA. The painting tells a story derived from Ludovico Ariosto's epic narrative, Orlando Furioso. Angelica, the pagan daughter of Cathay's king, forsakes the Christian knight Orlando after being struck by Cupid's arrow. She finds solace in the arms of Medoro, a Moorish soldier. As they journey together, their love blossoms so deeply that they carve their names into every place they visit. Blanchard was renowned for his skillful storytelling through art and during the early 1630s he adorned various private houses in Paris with similar narratives like this one. The composition exudes elements of Baroque style with its lush trees and mythological figures surrounding Angelica and Medoro. Intriguingly naked amidst nature's embrace, Angelica and Medoro symbolize forbidden love transcending cultural boundaries. The oak tree behind them serves as a classical motif representing strength and endurance while also providing an intimate backdrop to their passionate connection. This remarkable piece captures both mythological allure and emotional depth within its brushstrokes – an enchanting portrayal of two lovers entwined against all odds.
