EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil painting, titled "Venus and her Satellites (Venus at her Toilet)" is a masterpiece created by William Etty in the 19th century. The artwork measures 80.6x111 cm and belongs to a private collection. In this enchanting scene, we witness Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty, surrounded by her attendants as she prepares for the day ahead. Etty's attention to detail brings every element to life - from the meticulously painted architecture of the building exterior to the intricate musical instruments held by musicians in attendance. The composition exudes luxury and opulence, with richly adorned decor and sumptuous clothing adorning each figure. Venus herself stands gracefully amidst it all, partially dressed yet radiating an air of confidence and power. Etty skillfully captures both intimacy and grandeur in this piece. The soft lighting suggests that it is daytime while adding a touch of mystery to the scene. As we observe Venus being assisted by her attendants, we are reminded of classical mythology's influence on art throughout history. This print allows us to appreciate not only Etty's technical prowess but also his ability to convey emotion through his subjects' postures and expressions. It serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of classical themes within fine art.
