EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of La Caffarella, also known as Grotte d'Egerie. Created by Jean Morin in the 17th century, this etching takes us back to ancient Rome with its depiction of a ruined building nestled amidst the countryside. The artist, Cornelis van Poelenburgh, was inspired by the picturesque landscapes of Italy's Lazio region. The image transports us to a time long gone, where we can almost feel the whispers of history echoing through the crumbling walls. The intricate details captured in this print showcase Morin's skillful craftsmanship and his ability to bring life to an otherwise desolate scene. La Caffarella (ou Grotte d'Egerie) stands as a testament to both Roman heritage and French artistry. It serves as a reminder that even in ruins, there is still beauty to be found. This piece now resides within the Metropolitan Museum of Art, preserving its historical significance for generations to come. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported on a journey through time - immersing ourselves in ancient Rome's rich cultural tapestry while appreciating Morin's talent for capturing fleeting moments frozen forever in black and white.
