EDITORS COMMENTS
Joost de Pape's exquisite oil painting, "Venus and Adonis" (1629), captures the poignant moment from Greek mythology where the goddess of love, Venus, embraces her beloved Adonis, moments before his untimely death. The young man, clad in hunting attire, is shown with his bare feet on the ground, a hunting dog at his side, as he tenderly embraces Venus, who is adorned in flowing red robes, her voluptuous body adorned with intricate gold jewelry and delicate white fabric. The painting, a masterpiece of Dutch art from the 17th century, is rich in symbolism and emotion. The tree trunk in the background represents the cycle of life and death, as well as the idea of the fleeting nature of beauty and youth. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the clothing and bodies, as well as the natural setting, transport us to another time and place, inviting us to ponder the tragic love story of Venus and Adonis. This painting, now a cherished part of the Rijksmuseum's European heritage, continues to captivate and inspire viewers with its timeless beauty and emotional depth.
