EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing painting "Orpheus Charming the Animals with his Music" by Roelandt Jacobsz Savery. Created in 1627, this oil on panel masterpiece measures 62x131.5 cm and is housed in the prestigious Mauritshuis museum in The Hague, Netherlands. The artwork depicts Orpheus, a legendary Thracian musician, poet, and prophet from Greek mythology. Known for his ability to enchant all living creatures with his music, Orpheus stands amidst a lush landscape filled with an array of animals. From majestic lions to graceful horses and even mythical unicorns, every species seems charmed by the melodious tunes emanating from Orpheus' violin. Savery's exquisite attention to detail brings each creature to life as they gather around Orpheus in awe. This Baroque-style painting captures not only the magical essence of mythological tales but also reflects the Dutch Golden Age artistic tradition. As you gaze upon this remarkable image, you can almost hear the harmonious melodies that captivate these diverse creatures – from playful monkeys to elegant parrots and even extinct species like dodos. It is a testament to both Savery's skill as an artist and Orpheus' legendary musical prowess. Immerse yourself in this enchanting scene where nature meets music; let your imagination wander through this mythical island where animals walk alongside humans under the spellbinding power of melody.
