EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The sibyls: Libyan, Delphic, Cumaean" transports us back to the 18th century. Created by an unknown artist and now part of a private collection belonging to Luisa Ricciarini, this print showcases the timeless beauty and mystique of three ancient prophetesses. Intriguingly depicted in intricate detail, each woman represents a different Sibyl from antiquity. The Libyan Sibyl exudes an air of wisdom as she gazes into the distance with her head slightly tilted. The Delphic Sibyl appears deep in thought, her eyes fixed on something beyond our sight. Lastly, the Cumaean Sibyl captivates us with her enigmatic smile that hints at secrets only she knows. These augurs were revered for their ability to predict the future and provide guidance during uncertain times. Their significance is further emphasized by their presence in this lithograph - a testament to their enduring influence throughout history. As we admire this remarkable artwork by Luisa Ricciarini, we are reminded of how art has always been a medium for capturing moments frozen in time. It allows us to connect with past civilizations and appreciate their beliefs and traditions. With its impeccable attention to detail and striking composition, this engraving serves as both a visual feast for the eyes and a gateway into ancient worlds filled with mystery and wonder.
