EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jacob Jordaens' masterpiece, "Aquarius, from the Signs of the Zodiac". Painted in oil on canvas, this artwork is housed in the Palais du Luxembourg in Paris, France. The photograph captures a section of the ceiling in the East Gallery, which is now an annex to the Library of the Senate. Jordaens beautifully depicts Aquarius as a male figure pouring water from an amphora. This zodiacal representation symbolizes January and signifies new beginnings and renewal. The artist's mastery of Northern Renaissance style shines through his meticulous attention to detail and vibrant color palette. The nude portrayal adds a sense of vulnerability and purity to Aquarius' character. It highlights his connection with nature and emphasizes his role as a water bearer. As one of twelve signs in astrology, Aquarius holds significance for those born between January 20th and February 18th. Originally part of Jordaens Hotel in Antwerp, this remarkable piece was acquired by the Senate in 1802. It was then arranged according to the Republican Calendar before finding its current home at Palais du Luxembourg. This print not only celebrates Jordaens' artistic brilliance but also offers viewers an opportunity to explore astrological symbolism within art history.
