EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Jupiter, 1757" showcases the artistic brilliance of Bernard de Montfaucon. The artwork originates from a sculpture housed in the prestigious Chateau de Versailles and is part of the Supplement au livre de L antiquite expliquee et representee en figures published in Paris during the same year. The engraving depicts an allegorical figure representing Jupiter, the mythological god associated with law and order. Dressed in majestic robes, this male deity stands atop a plinth, exuding power and authority. With intricate lettering surrounding him, Montfaucon skillfully captures both the religious significance and scientific allure attributed to Jupiter. Notably present within this masterpiece is an amputee holding a bird perched on his arm—an intriguing metaphor that symbolizes medicine's ability to heal through amputation. This thought-provoking addition adds depth to Montfaucon's portrayal of divine intervention intersecting with human existence. Dating back to the 18th century, this monochrome print transports viewers into an era where art media played a crucial role in disseminating knowledge and cultural values. Its inclusion in private collections further highlights its rarity and desirability among avid art enthusiasts. "Jupiter, 1757" serves as a testament to Bernard de Montfaucon's exceptional talent for blending mythology with religion while incorporating elements of science—a visual narrative that continues to captivate audiences centuries later.
