EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Four Putti Making and Drinking Wine" takes us back to the 17th century, showcasing the angelic charm of four cherubic children engaged in a dangerous yet intriguing activity. Created by an unknown artist, this etching captures the essence of Italian heritage art. The scene unfolds with these mischievous putti diligently working on producing wine. With their tiny hands, they skillfully handle barrels and bottles while surrounded by abundant bunches of grapes. Their innocent faces reveal both curiosity and delight as they indulge in their clandestine endeavor. Flying against societal norms, these naked cherubs embody the carefree spirit of youth as they embrace nudity fearlessly. The concept behind this artwork challenges conventional notions of propriety during that era. The composition exudes a sense of peril intertwined with beauty, highlighting the delicate balance between innocence and temptation. It serves as a reminder that even celestial beings can succumb to earthly pleasures. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print invites viewers to contemplate the timeless themes it explores - from juvenile delinquency to the allure of alcohol. As we gaze upon these charming figures frozen in time, we are transported to an enchanting world where danger dances hand-in-hand with innocence.
