EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph captures the enchanting moment of "The Birth of Aphrodite". Created by the Spanish School in the 19th century, this print showcases exceptional quality and attention to detail. The image is an illustration for "Las Supersticiones De La Humanidad" by Jose Coroleu, published in 1881. In Greek mythology, Aphrodite is known as the goddess of love and beauty. Emerging from a seashell amidst crashing waves, she symbolizes the eternal connection between mankind and the sea. Surrounding her are cherubs and putti, representing Roman gods associated with love and desire. The birth of Aphrodite holds great significance in ancient beliefs and superstitions. As a mythological figure, she embodies divine beauty and heavenly grace. Her presence evokes feelings of awe and admiration among mortals who worshiped her as a deity. The scallop shell on which Aphrodite stands serves as a powerful symbol throughout various religions and mythologies. It represents fertility, rebirth, protection, and even pilgrimage. This stunning artwork not only celebrates the timeless allure of Aphrodite but also explores humanity's fascination with divinity through religious practices such as paganism or polytheism. Through its intricate details and vibrant colors, this print invites viewers to immerse themselves in ancient tales where gods walked among men - reminding us that beauty transcends time itself.
