EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled ""Le mois d avril" (April) la tonte des moutons" transports us to a picturesque scene of agricultural life in the 16th century. Painted by Leandro Bassano da Ponte between 1595-1600, this masterpiece measures an impressive 144x190 cm and is housed at the State Art Museum in Toula, Russia. The artwork depicts the symbolic act of sheep shearing during the month of April, represented by the prominent presence of a bull signifying the zodiac sign Taurus in the sky above. The vibrant colors and attention to detail bring to life a countryside setting where farmers diligently tend to their flock. Bassano's Venetian artistry shines through as he captures not only the beauty of nature but also showcases various elements such as tools and weapons used by craftsmen during that era. This painting serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. Through this piece, we catch a glimpse into everyday life in Italy during that time period - from breeding livestock for meat production to embracing astrology within society. It reminds us of how agriculture has always been an integral part of human existence, providing sustenance and shaping our way of life. As we admire this remarkable work, let it serve as a reminder that art has long been intertwined with our connection to nature and our understanding of ourselves within it.
