EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate relief of Mercury, the messenger god, from a series depicting planetary symbols and zodiac signs by Agostino di Duccio. Created around 1450 in plaster, this piece is housed in the Chapel of the Planets at Tempio Malatestiano in Rimini, Italy.
Mercury is depicted with his iconic attributes - winged sandals and caduceus - symbolizing speed and communication. The rooster at his feet represents vigilance and watchfulness, while snakes intertwine around him as symbols of transformation and renewal.
In mythology, Mercury/Hermes was known as a youthful deity associated with intelligence, wit, and eloquence. As a bridge between gods and mortals, he played a crucial role in delivering messages to both realms.
The detailed craftsmanship of this relief reflects the artistic mastery of the Renaissance period. Each element - from Mercury's conical hat to the intricate patterns on his robes - showcases Di Duccio's skill in capturing mythological figures with depth and realism.
This print invites viewers to delve into the world of astrology and astronomy, exploring themes of spirituality and divinity through ancient myths. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with celestial bodies and their symbolic meanings throughout history.
