EDITORS COMMENTS
"Title: Landscape with Two Boats, between 1630 and 1645 Creator: Ercole Bazanella, known as Ercole Bazicaluva (1571-1631), was an Italian engraver and painter active during the Baroque era. This print is an excellent example of his skill in capturing the beauty of the natural world. Description: This black and white etching, created between 1630 and 1645, depicts a serene landscape with two boats at the waters' edge. The scene is set in an Arcadian idyll, with rolling hills, trees, and plants in the foreground, and a tranquil lake in the background. The two boats, with their sails furled, are moored at the lake's edge, adding a sense of stillness and calm to the composition. Location: The exact location of this landscape is unknown, but it is reminiscent of the Italian countryside. The influence of Italian art is evident in the use of classical motifs and the attention to detail in the representation of the natural world. Historical Context: This print is a testament to the pastoral tradition in European art of the 17th century. The Arcadian ideal, which celebrated the simple pleasures of rural life, was a popular theme during this period. The use of black and white in this etching adds to the sense of timelessness and nostalgia, as well as highlighting the intricacies of the natural world. Significance: Landscape with Two Boats is an important work in the oeuvre of Ercole Bazicaluva, showcasing his mastery of the etching technique and his ability to capture the essence of the natural world. It is a beautiful and evocative representation of the pastoral tradition in European art, and a reminder of the enduring appeal of the natural world." The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is proud to house this historic work in its collection, adding to its rich heritage of art and cultural history. This print is a testament to the power of art to transport us to another time and place, and to remind us of the beauty and wonder of the natural world.
