EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Seconda Macchina for the Chinea of 1738: The Triumph of Bacchus and Ceres" by M Sorello, offers a glimpse into the rich and vibrant world of Roman mythology. The image, created in the 18th century, showcases a grand procession in progress, led by the god Bacchus, the deity of wine, fertility, and theater, and his mother, Ceres, the goddess of agriculture and grain crops. Bacchus is depicted riding a leopard, while Ceres rides in a chariot pulled by oxen. Surrounding them are various mythical creatures and figures, including centaurs, satyrs, and men and women in elaborate costumes. The scene is filled with joyous celebration, as evidenced by the raised arms and jubilant expressions on the faces of the revelers. The print is a testament to the enduring power of mythology in art and culture. It is also a reflection of the grandeur and opulence of the Italian Baroque period, with its intricate details and rich colors. The black and white etching, while monochrome, still manages to convey a sense of depth and texture, thanks to the skillful use of shading and contrast. The Seconda Macchina, or second float, was a part of the Chinea, a traditional Neapolitan procession held in honor of the Madonna del Soccorso. The float was designed and created by the Tuscher family, with the engraving by M Sorello. This print is a tribute to the artistic and cultural heritage of Italy and the enduring power of mythology to inspire and captivate us.
