EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Air" a magnificent oil on canvas painting created by Claude Deruet in 1640-41. The artwork, measuring 194x258.5 cm, is housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Orleans, France. Part of a series dedicated to the Four Elements and intended to glorify the Royal Family and Cardinal Richelieu, this particular piece possibly depicts Duchess Nicole de Lorraine and her court. The image portrays an allegorical scene featuring a stunning white horse ridden by the duchess herself. She is accompanied by her courtiers as they traverse through a picturesque garden landscape. In the background, rabbits can be seen darting away while dogs give chase, adding an element of movement and excitement to the composition. Deruet's masterful brushwork brings forth a sense of ethereal beauty and grace that perfectly captures the essence of air itself. The soft colors used throughout create an atmosphere of serenity and tranquility. This print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate every intricate detail of Deruet's masterpiece up close. It serves as a reminder not only of his exceptional talent but also of the rich history behind this remarkable artwork.
