EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a mesmerizing scene of Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom and war, receiving a young man and guiding him towards the personification of Gods commandments. The image is filled with intricate details that bring this mythological moment to life. Hovering above Minerva is a putto, symbolizing love and desire, holding a flame above her head and grasping a bell in its hand. At her feet, another reading putto leans against a horn of abundance while beside them stands yet another putto adorned with a laurel wreath next to a globe. These elements represent knowledge, prosperity, and victory. To the left of Minerva stands an exquisite portrait bust created by Hugo de Groot. It adds an air of sophistication to the composition. Above it all looms a weapon crowned with text that reads "Illustra nos sol justitiae" meaning "Illuminate us with the sun of justice". Flanking this central scene are bust portraits depicting Justinian and Ulpian, two historical figures associated with law and justice. Cupids or amores surround them on either side, further emphasizing themes of love intertwined with wisdom. Created between 1750-1790 by Simon Fokke through etching on paper, this print captures not only artistic beauty but also conveys profound symbolism related to intellectuality and moral guidance. Its presence serves as an invitation for viewers to explore these timeless concepts within their own lives.
