EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Jan Saenredam, titled "A Marriage Founded Solely on Pleasure, Presided over by Eros" we are transported into a world of love and desire. The composition depicts a harmonious union between a husband and wife, their connection rooted in pure pleasure. Eros, the Greek god of love and passion, stands tall at the center of the image as he presides over this blissful marriage. With his bow and arrow in hand, he symbolizes the power that binds these two souls together. His presence infuses the scene with an aura of enchantment and romance. The couple themselves exude happiness and contentment. The wife radiates beauty with her gentle smile while her husband gazes upon her with adoration. Their body language speaks volumes about their deep affection for one another. Saenredam's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. From the intricate patterns on their clothing to the delicate expressions on their faces, each element adds depth to this intimate portrayal of marital bliss. This print serves as a reminder that true love can be found when pleasure becomes the foundation for a lifelong commitment. It celebrates not only the joyous bond between man and woman but also highlights Eros' role in fostering enduring relationships built on mutual admiration and desire.
