EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Statue of Venus Victrix, a Roman goddess revered for her association with love, beauty, sex, and fertility. Created by the talented artist Francois-Anne David in the late 18th century, this copperplate engraving beautifully captures the essence of this iconic figure. The statue itself is a testament to classical art and Roman mythology. With meticulous attention to detail, David skillfully brings out every curve and contour of Venus's form. The stipple engraving technique adds depth and texture to the artwork, enhancing its allure. Displayed within the Museum de Florence in Paris during that era, this masterpiece was part of an extensive collection featuring engraved stones, statues, medals curated by the Grand Duke of Tuscany. It was undoubtedly one of the most treasured pieces within their cabinet of curiosities. Venus Victrix stands as a symbol of victory and power in addition to her role as a goddess associated with love and fertility. Her presence evokes both awe and admiration among those who behold her image. This print not only serves as a stunning piece of art but also offers us an opportunity to delve into ancient mythology while appreciating the timeless beauty captured by Francois-Anne David's skilled hand.
