EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite painting "Landscape with Mercury and Battus" by Pieter Mulier, the Younger. Created during the Baroque period, this masterpiece can be found in the prestigious collection of the Museum of Western and Eastern Art in Odessa. The artwork depicts a serene landscape where mythological figures come to life. In the foreground, we see Mercury (also known as Hermes), the Roman god of trade, standing tall with his iconic winged hat and staff. He is engaged in conversation with Battus, a shepherd from Greek mythology who was famously known for betraying secrets. Mulier's attention to detail is evident throughout this piece. The lush greenery surrounding them creates a harmonious atmosphere while various animals and birds add an element of liveliness to the scene. This composition beautifully combines elements of profit and commerce with allegory and literature. Drawing inspiration from Ovid's Metamorphoses, Mulier skillfully brings together Roman mythology and religion within this stunning landscape setting. The use of oil on canvas enhances every brushstroke, resulting in a visually striking image that captures both beauty and storytelling. As you admire this remarkable print, let your imagination wander into ancient realms where gods roamed freely amidst landscapes filled with enchantment.
