EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Juno, 1757" showcases the artistic brilliance of Bernard de Montfaucon. The image depicts Juno, the revered Roman goddess of marriage and childbirth, sitting majestically with a serene expression on her face. Adorned with a laurel wreath atop her head, she exudes power and authority. In this exquisite engraving from the 18th century, Juno is portrayed as a symbol of motherhood and protectorship. Holding a crossbow in one hand, she represents both warfare and maternal instincts - an intriguing juxtaposition that highlights her multifaceted nature. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every line meticulously etched to bring out the intricate features of Juno's body. Her breasts symbolize fertility while also emphasizing her role as a nurturing figure. Montfaucon's portrayal captures not only Juno's physical attributes but also embodies the essence of female strength and divinity. This print serves as a testament to his mastery in art media during that era. With its historical significance rooted in mythology and religion, this portrait offers viewers an opportunity to delve into ancient beliefs while appreciating Montfaucon's artistic talent. A true gem for any art collector or enthusiast seeking to explore the rich tapestry of human history through visual representation.
