EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Cymon and Iphigenia" by Jan Wildens, a renowned Flemish artist from the 17th century. Painted in oil on canvas around 1617, this artwork measures an impressive dimension of 208x282 cm and is currently housed in the Art History Museum in Vienna. The painting depicts a scene from Greek mythology, where Cymon, a young man known for his wild nature, encounters Iphigenia, a beautiful woman who has fallen into a deep slumber. Surrounding them is a lush landscape filled with botanical elements such as fruits and flowers, emphasizing the connection between nature and human existence. Wildens skillfully captures various themes within this composition - beauty, seduction, observation - all while incorporating elements of baroque art. The inclusion of an animal companion adds intrigue to the narrative; here we see a mischievous monkey perched upon Cymon's shoulder. Through his masterful brushstrokes and attention to detail, Wildens brings this mythological tale to life with vibrant colors and exquisite rendering of human form. This print allows us to appreciate not only the technical brilliance but also the rich symbolism embedded within this work of art. Whether you are drawn to its mythological allure or simply captivated by its aesthetic beauty, "Cymon and Iphigenia" continues to be celebrated as one of Jan Wildens' most significant contributions to Flemish art history.
