EDITORS COMMENTS
Anthonie Waterloo's engraving, "Apollo and Daphne," dates from the Dutch Golden Age between circa 1650 and circa 1660. This work of art, showcasing the deities Apollo and Daphne, is a testament to the Baroque era's mastery of etching and engraving techniques. The image transports us to the ancient world of Greek mythology, where the sun god Apollo, with his chiseled features and bow in hand, relentlessly pursues the nymph Daphne, who is transforming into a tree to escape his advances. The intricate details of the trees, leaves, and sun rays are rendered with remarkable precision, while the dynamic interplay between light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the scene. This engraving, with its rich heritage from the Low Countries of Europe, is now part of the permanent collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a treasure of the seventeenth century that continues to inspire awe and wonder.
