EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite tapestry titled "Vertumnus and Pomona: Vertumnus transformed into a farmer" created around 1550 by Coecke van Aelst, Pieter. The artwork, measuring an impressive 330x170 cm, is housed in the Royal Palace of Aranjuez in Spain. The tapestry forms part of the series "Vertumnus and Pomona" designed by Pieter Coeke Van Aelst and Leonard Thiry. It was meticulously manufactured in Brussels using gold, wool, and silk. This particular panel depicts a scene from Ovid's Metamorphoses (XIV, 641), focusing on Pomona. Intricate details come to life as we witness Vertumnus transforming into a farmer to woo Pomona. The vibrant colors add depth to the flemish art style while highlighting various plants and fruits that surround them. Classical mythology intertwines with nature as this tale unfolds against a backdrop of antique Rome. The composition features architectural elements such as columns and caryatids that enhance the Renaissance aesthetic. The woman at its center exudes beauty amidst the lush garden setting adorned with flowers. This print captures not only the artistic mastery but also provides insight into European culture during the early modern era. Its decorative arts showcase textiles richly woven with symbolism and meaning. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art through Fine Art Finder's lens, we are transported back in time to appreciate both its historical significance and timeless beauty.
