EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "A representation of September, 1757" by artist Bernard de Montfaucon, takes us back to the enchanting world of 18th-century Rome. In this allegorical scene, a naked man stands proudly holding a lizard in one hand while two tanks symbolize the bountiful grape harvest. The intricate engraving showcases Montfaucon's mastery in capturing both the physicality and symbolism of this month. The man's nudity represents vulnerability and purity, emphasizing his connection with nature during the harvest season. His confident stance exudes strength and confidence as he harnesses the magic of agriculture. The lizard held delicately in his hand adds an air of mystique to the composition. Lizards were often associated with transformation and regeneration in ancient Roman culture, further enhancing the symbolic depth of this artwork. Montfaucon's attention to detail is evident not only in his depiction of human anatomy but also through carefully etched lettering that accompanies the illustration. This meticulous touch adds another layer to our understanding of September's significance within Roman society. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece from centuries past, we are transported to a time when people relied on their connection with nature for sustenance and survival. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modern advancements, there is still something magical about embracing our agricultural roots.
