EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting scene of "Orpheus Charming the Animals with His Music" painted by Roelandt Savery in 1610. The artwork, displayed at the Stadel Museum in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, showcases Savery's mastery of oil on oak technique. In this baroque masterpiece, Orpheus stands amidst a lush forest landscape surrounded by an array of majestic creatures. With his lyre in hand and music flowing from his instrument, he effortlessly captivates every animal within earshot. From buffalos to camels, horses to deer, lions to swans - all are spellbound by Orpheus' melodious tunes. The painting beautifully combines elements of mythology and nature as mythological figure Orpheus harmoniously coexists with wildlife. The artist's attention to detail is evident as each creature is meticulously rendered with vibrant colors that bring them to life. Savery skillfully portrays the power of music through this composition; it transcends language barriers and unites both man and beast in a shared moment of tranquility. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we can almost hear the symphony created between Orpheus' melodies and the animals' responses. This stunning work exemplifies Flemish art during the 17th century while showcasing Savery's talent for capturing intricate landscapes filled with diverse fauna. It serves as a testament to humanity's connection with nature and our ability to communicate through art across time and cultures.
