EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Plate 7: Peleo et Talamone Argonauti condotti da Tetide" takes us back to the grandeur of the Baroque era. The image is a reproduction of an etching created in the 17th century by Remigio Cantagallina, after Giulio Parigi's original artwork. It forms part of a larger collection called "The magnificent pageant on the Arno in Florence for the marriage of the Grand Duke". In this scene, we witness a celebration taking place on the River Arno in Florence, Italy. A galley ship gracefully glides through calm waters as it carries Peleo and Talamone, two legendary Argonauts guided by Tetide (Thetis), a Nereid from Greek mythology. The men aboard are dressed in elaborate costumes befitting such an extravagant event. The composition exudes elegance and harmony with its meticulous attention to detail. From every leaf on plants adorning the prow to each stroke forming intricate patterns on their attire, nothing has been overlooked. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Italian heritage artistry. It transports viewers back centuries ago when celebrations were opulent displays of wealth and power. Displayed at The Met museum, this piece offers us an opportunity to appreciate both nature's beauty and human creativity while immersing ourselves in history's rich tapestry.
