EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century artwork, titled "Venus Asks Neptune to Prevent Telemachus from Landing on Ithaca," is a design for a wall painting by the Dutch artist Ruik Keyert. The scene is inspired by the rich mythology of ancient Greece and Rome, specifically the Odyssey, an epic poem attributed to Homer. In the painting, we see four figures engaged in a dramatic encounter at sea. Venus, the goddess of love, stands at the helm of a magnificent chariot, her ethereal beauty radiating from her form. With a gentle yet determined expression, she reaches out to Neptune, the god of the sea, who sits regally on his trident. Venus implores Neptune to prevent Telemachus, the son of Odysseus, from landing on Ithaca, his rightful home. Cupid, the mischievous god of love, hovers above the scene, his arrow at the ready, while two men, possibly sailors, look on in awe from the foreground. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the artwork bring the mythological figures to life, transporting us to a time when gods and goddesses intervened in human affairs. The artwork, with its rich history and cultural significance, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Greek and Roman mythology. This masterpiece, created using ink on paper, is a treasure of European art heritage, showcasing the skill and creativity of Ruik Keyert. The Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands is fortunate to have this exquisite piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and depth of this artwork.
