EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Vertumnus and Pomona, 1605" by Pieter Jansz Saenredam. The artwork is housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts in Minnesota, USA. Measuring at 18 3/8 x 14 inches (46.67 x 35.56 cm), this exquisite piece depicts a scene from Roman mythology. In the image, we see Vertumnus, the god of seasons and change, disguised as an old woman to woo Pomona, the goddess of fruit trees and gardens. Saenredam's attention to detail is evident through his meticulous brushwork and delicate use of color. The composition draws viewers into a lush garden setting where Pomona tends to her bountiful harvest while Vertumnus approaches with a bouquet of flowers. The artist skillfully captures their interaction with subtle gestures and expressions that convey both curiosity and enchantment. The print beautifully captures every nuance of Saenredam's original masterpiece, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate its intricate beauty up close. This particular print was generously gifted to the museum by Albert, Clytie, and Ames Sheldon. With its timeless appeal and rich symbolism rooted in ancient mythology, "Vertumnus and Pomona" continues to captivate audiences centuries after its creation. It serves as a testament to Saenredam's talent as well as an enduring reminder of humanity's fascination with love stories intertwined with nature's cycles.
