EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Jupiter tumbling from a horse-drawn carriage at right, Ganymede in the form of an eagle carries a woman in the upper centre, below Venus in he centre flanked at the left by the three Graces" transports us back to 16th century Italy. Created by Master of the Die, this engraving beautifully captures a scene inspired by Greek and Roman mythology. In this intricate artwork, we witness Jupiter, the king of gods himself, falling from a horse-drawn carriage on the right side. Meanwhile, Ganymede takes on his majestic form as an eagle to carry a woman through the sky in the upper center. Just below them stands Venus surrounded by her ethereal beauty while being accompanied by three Graces on her left. Raphael Sanzio's masterful technique shines through every detail of this piece. The artist's skillful use of shading and line work brings life to each character and animal portrayed. The nakedness of some figures adds an element of vulnerability and rawness that is characteristic of Renaissance art. As we gaze upon this remarkable print housed within The Met museum's collection, we are reminded not only of ancient myths but also how art has always been intertwined with religion and storytelling throughout history. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with divine beings and our continuous search for meaning within our existence. Overall, this photograph offers us a glimpse into centuries past - where horses pulled carriages along country roads while
