EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of grandeur and reverence in the 16th century. A man and woman, elegantly dressed, stand before a king seated on his majestic throne. With utmost respect and humility, they offer a platter filled with gleaming coins to their sovereign ruler. The scene is set within an elaborate frame, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship of the era. The artist, Battista del Moro, skillfully portrays every detail - from the delicate flowers adorning the frame to the regal garments worn by all three figures. Formerly attributed to Andrea Schiavone but now recognized as Del Moro's work, this piece exemplifies Italian artistry at its finest. The etching technique used adds depth and texture to each element of the composition. The expressions on everyone's faces tell a story of loyalty and devotion. The man gestures respectfully towards his king while the woman delicately holds out the platter with grace. Their actions symbolize their dedication to serving their monarch faithfully. Displayed in The Metropolitan Museum of Art in Rome, this artwork stands as a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence. It reminds us of an era when kings ruled with authority and subjects showed unwavering allegiance. Battista del Moro's masterpiece serves as a window into 16th-century Italy - where power dynamics were captured through artistry and human emotions conveyed through subtle gestures.
