EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Plate 2: The Creation of Man (Hominis creatio), from Ovids Metamorphoses, 1606" transports us back to the enchanting world of Italian mythology in the 17th century. Created by Antonio Tempesta, a renowned artist of his time, this etching showcases his exceptional talent for capturing intricate details and evoking powerful emotions. In this scene inspired by Ovid's Metamorphoses, we witness the divine act of creation as God breathes life into man. The image depicts a majestic deity surrounded by billowing clouds, symbolizing the ethereal nature of this momentous event. With great precision, Tempesta portrays both strength and tenderness in God's posture as he gently touches the newly formed male figure. The composition also includes various elements that enrich its narrative. A noble lion stands beside God, representing courage and nobility bestowed upon mankind. As man emerges from nothingness with nakedness symbolizing vulnerability and purity, it emphasizes our connection to nature and divinity. Tempesta masterfully combines artistry with storytelling through his meticulous attention to detail. Every line etched on paper conveys a sense of awe-inspiring beauty while staying true to the essence of Ovid's literary masterpiece. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this remarkable piece invites viewers to contemplate themes such as creation mythologies, religion, and humanity's place within them. It serves as a timeless reminder
