EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print depicts the renowned Roman poet Ovid, born in 43 BC, during the height of the Roman Empire. Ovid, whose full name was Publius Ovidius Naso, is famously known for his erotic and elegiac poetry, most notably his collection of love poems titled "Amores" or "Love Affairs." The work, composed of elegiac couplets, was published around 27 BC and is considered a seminal work in the genre. Ovid's "Amores" is a series of poems dedicated to his various lovers and the trials and tribulations of love. The collection showcases the poet's wit, charm, and mastery of language, making it a beloved and enduring work of Latin literature. This print, created in Lyon, France, in 1639, captures the essence of Ovid's poetic persona, with the poet depicted in contemplative pose, pen in hand, surrounded by the trappings of love - a heart, a quill, and a scroll bearing the title "Amores." Ovid's influence on Western literature is immeasurable, with his works continuing to inspire generations of poets and writers. His "Metamorphoses," another famous collection of poems, is a foundational text in the European literary tradition. Despite being exiled from Rome in 8 AD, Ovid's legacy as a master of Latin poetry endures, and his works continue to captivate readers and scholars alike.
