EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration of Isis, taken from the renowned work "De Mulieribus Claris" by Giovanni Boccaccio. The color lithograph beautifully captures the essence of this powerful and famous female figure in mythology. Isis, depicted here in her idealized form, is adorned with attributes that symbolize her significance as a wife, mother, and patroness. With a headdress representing her divine nature and a staff denoting her magical powers, she holds an oar while rowing gracefully on a boat. This imagery reflects her association with water and navigation. As one of the most prominent goddesses in the ancient Egyptian pantheon, Isis was revered for her role as a protector of nature and motherhood. Her influence extended beyond Egypt to Greco-Roman culture as well. The stylized depiction of Isis includes elements such as lotus flowers and ankh symbols that further emphasize her connection to life and fertility. Boccaccio's "De Mulieribus Claris" stands out as the first collection solely dedicated to biographies of women in Western literature. Alongside his compilation on famous men called "De Casibus Virorum Illustrium" it highlights his commitment to celebrating both genders' achievements throughout history. This remarkable print not only serves as a visual tribute to Isis but also represents Boccaccio's groundbreaking contribution to gender-focused literature during medieval times.
