EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Second Day (Dies II), from the series The Creation of the World, ca. 1594" transports us back to the 16th century, immersing us in a world of aquatic life and ancient mythology. Created by Jan Muller, this engraving beautifully captures the concept of creation as described in the Book of Genesis. In this circular composition, we witness a divine scene unfold before our eyes. A male deity pours water from a jug onto an ethereal female figure who stands gracefully amidst seashells. As rain falls from above, it forms a magnificent rainbow that arches across the image. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every element depicted - from the intricate engravings on seashells to the flowing drapery adorning both figures. Muller skillfully combines elements of Christian iconography with Netherlandish artistic traditions to create a powerful representation of creation myth. "The Second Day" invites viewers to contemplate themes such as nature's beauty, spirituality, and humanity's place within God's grand design. It serves as a reminder of our connection to ancient beliefs and offers insight into how people perceived their existence centuries ago. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this remarkable piece by Jan Muller continues to captivate audiences with its timeless portrayal of divinity and creation itself.
