EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Marco Dente, titled "Apollo tending flocks Admetus seated holding" transports us to a mythical world where gods and mortals coexist. The print showcases the god Apollo in his pastoral role, diligently watching over a flock of sheep while seated next to Admetus. With his lyre in hand, Apollo exudes an air of tranquility as he strums the instrument with finesse. Flanked by a cow and a faithful dog, Apollo's presence is further enhanced by the winding serpent that gracefully wraps itself around a dead tree nearby. These elements symbolize both harmony and balance within nature. As we gaze at this scene, we are reminded of the ancient belief in the interconnectedness between humans and animals. The meticulous details captured in this engraving highlight Dente's skill as an Italian artist from Ravenna during the early 16th century. The composition is expertly framed within trimmed sheets measuring approximately 4 1/2 x 7 3/16 inches (114 x 182 cm), making it suitable for prints or display. Through Artokoloro's reproduction of this masterpiece from their Liszt Collection, viewers can now appreciate Dente's artistry and immerse themselves in the timeless beauty of classical mythology. This enchanting print serves as a window into another era when gods roamed among men and nature held profound significance – an exquisite addition to any art lover's collection.
