EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Allegory on the occasion of the marriage of Jacob Alewijn Ghijzen and Perina Vorsterman" transports us back to 1719, capturing a momentous celebration filled with symbolism and love. The artwork, created by Bernard Picart, beautifully depicts various allegorical figures representing virtues and blessings that surround the couple. At the center of this enchanting scene stands Hymenaeus, the Greek god of marriage, holding his torches high in honor of Jacob Alewijn Ghijzen and Perina Vorsterman's union. They are embraced by personifications of theological virtues such as faith, virtue, chastity, grace, and prudence - all essential elements for a successful marriage. Intriguingly depicted putti chase away discord while forming snakes symbolize unity through their intertwined bodies. A cartouche displays a powerful motto: "Foedera Dextrae" emphasizing the strength found in joining hands together. The maritime theme is also present throughout this masterpiece; ships sail gracefully along the Amstel River as gods oversee from above. This nod to Amsterdam further enhances the significance of this joyous event within its cultural context. Quint Lox's expert capture brings out every detail in this print – from cupid holding torches to loveliness personified by a putto hunting down dissension in the basement. It is an exquisite representation that immortalizes not only Jacob Alewijn Ghijzen and Perina Vor
