EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, titled "The Crowning of Mirtillo" we are transported to a scene filled with intrigue and romance. Painted by the talented Dutch artist Dirck van der Lisse in the 17th century, this artwork captures a moment from an idyllic Arcadian setting. At the center of the composition stands Mirtillo, adorned with a garland upon his head. Surrounded by lush greenery and delicate flowers, he appears as if caught in a dreamlike state. The bow and arrow resting beside him hint at his role as an archer or perhaps symbolize love's power to strike unexpectedly. Adding further mystique to the image is Amarillis, who cleverly disguises herself as a woman. This playful act sets the stage for what seems to be an enchanting kissing game unfolding before our eyes. As we gaze upon this tender moment between two figures lost in their own world, it becomes impossible not to feel drawn into their secret world of affection. Through its masterful use of light and shadow, Van der Lisse's painting evokes emotions that transcend time itself. It reminds us that love knows no boundaries and can flourish even amidst disguise and secrecy. This remarkable piece has found its home within London's prestigious Johnny van Haeften Gallery where it continues to captivate art enthusiasts from around the globe. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' meticulous reproduction techniques, we now have access to this exquisite print which allows us all to appreciate and cherish this
