EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite fresco by Francesco del Cossa, titled "April". The top section of the artwork depicts the Triumph of Venus (Aphrodite), surrounded by the enchanting presence of the Three Graces and couples engaged in tender kisses. The scene exudes an air of romance and sensuality. In the middle portion, we find a representation of the zodiacal sign of the bull, symbolizing strength and determination. This adds an element of mysticism to the composition, connecting it with astrology and celestial forces. Below this mystical depiction is Borso d'Este, a prominent figure from history who held titles such as Duke of Modena and Reggio as well as Marquis of Ferrara. His presence signifies his importance during that era. The entire fresco is housed in Salon des Months at Palace Schifanoia in Ferrara, Italy. Its vibrant colors and intricate details transport viewers back to 15th-century Italy when it was created. Giancarlo Costa's skillful photography captures every nuance and brushstroke with precision. Through this image, we can appreciate not only del Cossa's artistic talent but also gain insight into Italian culture during that period. This print serves as a testament to timeless artistry that continues to captivate audiences today. It invites us to delve into mythology, astrology, history, and beauty all at once—a true masterpiece frozen in time for our enjoyment.
