EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Plate 8: a horseman descends a riverbank, another horseman in the river to the right" takes us back to the 17th century. The image showcases two skilled horsemen navigating their way through a picturesque countryside scene. The first horseman gracefully descends from the steep riverbank, his majestic steed displaying strength and poise. In contrast, the second rider can be seen immersed in the tranquil waters of the river, adding an element of adventure to this artistic composition. Created by Stefano della Bella, an Italian etcher known for his exquisite attention to detail and ability to capture movement with precision, this print is a testament to his mastery of capturing equestrian scenes. Della Bella's expertise shines through as he skillfully portrays every nuance of these magnificent horses and their riders. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported back in time - witnessing not only a moment frozen forever but also gaining insight into life during that era. The location remains unknown; however, its beauty transcends geographical boundaries. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art under Nicolas Langlois' collection, this piece serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and cultural legacy. It allows us to appreciate both the artistry involved in creating such masterpieces and our connection with nature throughout history.
