EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Plate 17: camels, from Various animals (Diversi animali), ca. 1641" takes us back to the 17th century Italy. Created by the talented Italian artist Stefano della Bella, this etching showcases his exceptional skill in capturing the essence of these magnificent creatures. In this image, we are transported to a country setting where two camels stand tall against a picturesque backdrop. The humps on their backs symbolize their resilience and adaptability to harsh desert environments. Their graceful postures exude an air of tranquility and strength. The monochromatic palette adds depth and texture to the scene, emphasizing every intricate detail meticulously etched by Della Bella's hand. The contrast between light and shadow enhances the overall composition, allowing us to appreciate each line that brings these camels to life. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can't help but marvel at Della Bella's ability to capture not only the physical attributes of these animals but also their spirit and character. It serves as a testament to his mastery of his craft during both the 17th and 18th centuries. Now preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this print stands as a reminder of Della Bella's contribution to art history. It invites us into a world long gone yet forever immortalized through his artistic vision.
