EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 12: Atalanta led by Diana (Atalata condoti da Diana), a captivating black and white etching from the 17th century, captures a moment of grandeur and celebration during the wedding festivities of Cosimo de Medici in Florence, Italy. This remarkable artwork is part of 'The magnificent pageant on the river Arno in Florence for the marriage of the Grand Duke' series, created by Remigio Cantagallina after Giulio Parigi. In this scene, Atalanta, accompanied by warriors bearing shields and spears, is guided by the graceful presence of Diana herself. The goddess Artemis leads Atalanta through a galley ship adorned with oarsmen and soldiers. As they sail along the majestic River Arno, their journey symbolizes strength, determination, and divine intervention. The intricate details captured in this print showcase both mythological elements and historical significance. Atalanta represents female empowerment while embodying Greek mythology's themes of bravery and resilience. The composition beautifully combines baroque aesthetics with Renaissance influences that were prevalent during Cosimo de Medici's reign. This artwork not only transports us to a time long ago but also highlights Florence's rich cultural heritage. It serves as a testament to Italian artistry and craftsmanship from centuries past. Preserved at The Met Museum today, this print continues to inspire awe as it invites viewers into an enchanting world where gods walk among mortals.
