EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print depicts the ancient mythological phenomenon of the Four Winds, specifically Occidens Zephyrus, or the Wind of the West, in his relentless pursuit of the goddess Flora. The image, believed to have been created around 1640, captures a moment in time as the west wind, personified as a handsome, determined figure with outstretched arms, chases the graceful goddess of flowers. With a playful yet forceful gust, he makes her drop her delicate blooms onto the earth below. The natural beauty of the scene is captured in exquisite detail, with the wind's flowing robes and Flora's elegant drapery billowing around them. The earth below is dotted with a myriad of flowers, their petals unfurling in the wind, creating a breathtaking tableau. This historical print offers a glimpse into the rich mythology and natural phenomena that have long captivated the human imagination. The west wind, known for bringing rain and moisture, is depicted as a powerful force of nature that can both nurture and destroy. Flora, the goddess of flowers and the embodiment of spring, represents the beauty and fragility of the natural world. The print also serves as a reminder of the cyclical nature of the seasons and the ever-changing weather patterns that have shaped our planet for millennia. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the timeless beauty and mystery of the natural world.
