EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Abraham Bloemaert's masterpiece, "Vertumne et Pomone" a stunning oil painting on copper from around 1605. The artwork depicts the mythological tale of Vertumnus, the god of seasons, who disguises himself as an old woman to gain entry into the nymph Pomona's orchard. In this vibrant piece, Bloemaert skillfully captures the essence of transformation and metamorphosis. The artist portrays Vertumnus' clever disguise as he stands before Pomona, his true identity concealed beneath aged features. The use of color adds depth and richness to the scene, enhancing its mythical allure. The painting also explores themes of age and youth through contrasting elements. While Vertumnus conceals his youthful appearance behind a weathered facade, Pomona stands naked with her body exposed—a symbol of beauty and fertility associated with her role as a nymph in Greek mythology. Bloemaert's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing life to each character and infusing the artwork with a sense of wonder. This Flemish masterpiece exemplifies the artistic brilliance prevalent during the 17th century. As you gaze upon this extraordinary print, allow yourself to be transported into a world where gods walk among mortals and ancient myths come alive. Let your imagination wander through this enchanting composition that celebrates both artistry and storytelling at its finest.
