EDITORS COMMENTS
Autumn, 1643 (etching) captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us to a time when nature's vibrant colors painted the world. This exquisite print by Wenceslaus Hollar showcases one of four female figures symbolizing the changing seasons. Against the backdrop of Albury Park, a magnificent country house in Surrey owned by the esteemed Collector Earl of Arundel, we witness autumn's arrival. The scene unfolds with meticulous detail - vineyards stretch along a wall covered in lush vines, their leaves ablaze with warm hues. A serene river meanders through the landscape, reflecting the fading sunlight. Nestled amidst this idyllic setting is a classical ruin that adds an air of mystery and intrigue. A graceful woman stands before us, adorned in fashionable attire befitting her time. She wears an elegant dress complemented by a scarf and shawl that billow gently in the breeze. Her full-length figure exudes allegorical symbolism as she holds a fan delicately while veiled under autumn's enchantment. This etching not only captivates our eyes but also stirs our souls through its incorporation of c17th verse and poetry. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact from Czech artist Wenceslaus Hollar. As we gaze upon this timeless image captured on paper centuries ago, we are reminded of nature's eternal beauty and how art has preserved moments for generations to come.
