EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving by Sasso, after a painting by Angelo Monticelli, depicts a captivating ceremonial dance dedicated to the ancient Greek goddess Artemis or Diana, the Huntress. The scene unfolds in a sacred forest on the island of Delos, a place of great significance in Greek mythology where Artemis was born. The goddess, depicted in the center, is shown with a crescent moon headdress and carrying a bow and quiver of arrows, symbolizing her role as the protector of the wilderness and the hunt. Surrounding her are a group of dancers, their bodies adorned with intricate costumes and wearing horns, paying homage to the goddess and celebrating her divine presence. The dance, a sacred performance steeped in tradition, is believed to have been an offering to Artemis, seeking her favour and blessing. The dancers move gracefully in unison, their movements reflecting the rhythm of nature and the cycle of life. The forest, with its towering trees and vibrant foliage, serves as a backdrop to this mystical scene, adding to the sense of otherworldliness and reverence. This beautiful illustration, taken from Giulio Ferrario's Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World, published in Florence in 1847, offers a glimpse into the rich history and mythology of ancient Greece. It is a testament to the enduring power of art and storytelling, allowing us to connect with the past and appreciate the beauty and complexity of the world's cultural heritage.
