EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cupid and the Swan, 1652" by Wenceslaus Hollar transports us to a world of allegorical beauty. Created in the 17th century, this etching showcases an angelic figure of Cupid, surrounded by cherubs and birds. The composition centers around a young boy, symbolizing Cupid himself, tenderly cuddling with a majestic swan. The contrast between their pure white feathers against the dark background adds depth to the image. It is as if time stands still in this moment of affectionate embrace. Hollar's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his etching technique. The intricate lines bring life to each feather on both the swan and cherubs' wings. This masterpiece reflects Hollar's Bohemian heritage while paying homage to Giulio Romano's influence. Displayed within a grand palace setting, possibly Palazzo Te, this artwork evokes a sense of elegance and sophistication. The nakedness of Cupid represents innocence and vulnerability while emphasizing love's power over all beings. As we gaze upon this ethereal scene captured by Wenceslaus Hollar, we are reminded that love transcends boundaries - whether human or animal - uniting us all under its enchanting spell. This timeless piece from the Metropolitan Museum of Art invites us into a realm where passion intertwines with nature itself.
