The Awakening of Spring
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph that transports viewers to the enchanting realm of mythological figures and blooming flowers. Created by George van den Bos in the early 20th century, this artwork showcases his mastery in capturing the essence of spring's arrival. In this piece, Cupid, the mischievous god of love and desire, takes center stage. With his bow and arrow at hand, he symbolizes the awakening passions that come with the changing season. Eros' presence adds an air of romance and intrigue to this composition. Surrounded by a vibrant array of wildflowers, Cupid lies on a great bed adorned with delicate curtains. The floral backdrop emphasizes nature's beauty while hinting at fertility and growth. Each petal seems to burst with life as if celebrating spring's long-awaited arrival. The artist skillfully portrays femininity through a woman who gazes upon Cupid with curiosity or perhaps admiration. Her presence suggests that she too has been awakened by spring's allure, embracing her own desires and sensuality. This print not only captures artistic excellence but also offers insight into pagan mythology and its influence on art during this period. It serves as a reminder of humanity's connection to nature and our eternal fascination with love. Bridgeman Images brings us yet another remarkable piece from their private collection; "The Awakening of Spring" is truly an exquisite representation of artistry intertwined with mythological narratives.
