EDITORS COMMENTS
This detail from Parmigianino's legendary fresco, "The Legend of Artemis and Actaeon," showcases the moment of recognition between the goddess Artemis and the mortal hunter Actaeon. Painted in 1523 in the Castle of Fontanellato in Emilia-Romagna, Italy, this masterpiece is a prime example of the High Renaissance period, specifically the Cinquecento era. Parmigianino, born Francesco Mazzola in 1503, was an influential Italian painter of the early modern era. His unique style, characterized by its elongated figures and delicate handling of light, set him apart from his contemporaries. In this scene, the artist expertly captures the tension between the human and divine realms, as Artemis, the goddess of the hunt, turns Actaeon into a stag to punish him for witnessing her bathing. The detail highlights the greyhound, a symbol of the hunt and a faithful companion to Actaeon, who is seen in the full fresco lying at his feet. The Spanish galgo, or sighthound, is a breed known for its exceptional speed and agility, making it an ideal hunting companion. The dog's gaze, fixed on the scene unfolding before it, adds to the sense of anticipation and drama in the painting. This vertical, upright image invites viewers to explore the rich mythological narrative and the intricacies of Parmigianino's artistic technique. The painting's enduring appeal lies in its ability to transport us to a time when myth and reality intertwined, and the divine and human realms were not so far apart.
