EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, created in the 18th century by artist Bernard de Montfaucon, depicts a symbolic representation of the seven days of the week. Titled "Seven days of the week. Twilight, morning, dawn, the evening" this engraving is part of Montfaucon's renowned work called Supplement au livre de L'antiquite expliquee et representee en figures. In this intricate illustration, each day is personified by a chariot representing different times of day - twilight, morning, dawn, and evening. The artist skillfully captures the essence of these moments through detailed lettering and meticulous art media techniques. Transportation plays a significant role in conveying the allegorical meaning behind this artwork. The chariots symbolize movement and progression as they traverse along a road that represents time itself. This monochrome masterpiece invites viewers to reflect on their own journey through life's weekly cycle. Housed in a private collection today, this print serves as an exquisite example of 18th-century artistry and showcases Montfaucon's talent for capturing complex concepts within his works. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate audiences even centuries later.
