EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Phoebus et Boree" takes us back to the 19th century with its rustic charm and mythical allure. Created by renowned artist Jean Francois Millet, this piece showcases his mastery in capturing the essence of rural life and natural beauty. In this monochrome landscape, we find ourselves amidst a windswept hillside surrounded by majestic mountains. The day is filled with a sense of adventure as two horses bravely navigate through the adversity of wind and rugged terrain. It symbolizes the struggle and effort required on any journey, both physical and metaphorical. The concept behind this artwork draws inspiration from mythology, featuring Phoebus (the Greek god Apollo) and Boree (the personification of the north wind). Their presence adds an ethereal touch to an already breathtaking scene. Millet's artistic school, known as Barbizon School, shines through in his attention to detail and use of pastel tones. This particular print was published in 1913 by Ralph Nevill for The Studio Volume 59. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported not only to a specific time but also into a world where nature reigns supreme. It serves as a reminder that even amidst struggle and adversity, there is still beauty to be found in every corner of our vast geography.
