EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Paolo Farinati's masterpiece, "Cupid and Apollo with a lyre" created around 1568. The image depicts two allegorical figures from Greek mythology in an enchanting scene. In the foreground stands Cupid, the mischievous child deity of love, holding his iconic bow and arrow. Beside him is Apollo, the sun god and patron of music, gracefully strumming a lyre. The etching beautifully captures the essence of these mythological characters while showcasing Farinati's artistic prowess. The intricate details bring life to their naked forms as they stand against a country backdrop. Their nudity symbolizes purity and vulnerability within this religious context. Farinati's work reflects the rich heritage of Italian art during the 16th century. His mastery in portraying human anatomy combined with his skillful use of light and shadow make this piece truly remarkable. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print allows viewers to appreciate Farinati's contribution to Renaissance artistry. It serves as a reminder that classical mythology continues to inspire contemporary artists even today.
