EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Neptune in his Chariot being drawn by seahorses" takes us back to the 16th century and immerses us in the realm of mythology. Created by Italian artist Giulio Bonasone, this exquisite engraving showcases his mastery of detail and storytelling. In this scene from the Division of the Universe series, Neptune, also known as Poseidon in Greek mythology, is depicted as a powerful deity reigning over the sea. With regal poise and authority, he stands tall on his majestic chariot while being pulled through turbulent waters by two magnificent seahorses. The intricate lines etched into the paper bring to life every scale on these mythical creatures as they effortlessly glide through their watery domain. The composition exudes a sense of movement and energy that captures Neptune's divine presence. Bonasone's artistic prowess shines through in this piece, showcasing not only his technical skill but also his deep understanding of classical mythology. Through this artwork, we are transported to an era where gods ruled over land and sea with awe-inspiring might. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a testament to Italy's rich artistic heritage during the Renaissance period. It invites viewers to appreciate both its historical significance and aesthetic beauty—a true treasure for art enthusiasts seeking inspiration from centuries past.
