EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Castor and Pollux, 1731" by Bernard Picart takes us on a journey through the celestial realm. In this stunning artwork, we witness the mythical twins Castor and Pollux riding gallantly across the night sky. The sepia tones add an air of timelessness to this classical scene. As they traverse the heavens, these divine figures are surrounded by a cluster of stars and wisps of clouds that form a mesmerizing constellation. Their presence illuminates the cosmos with an ethereal glow, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The artist skillfully captures the essence of astrology and mythology in this piece. Castor and Pollux were known as Dioscuri in Greek mythology - twin brothers born from different fathers but sharing immortality. They were revered as protectors of sailors at sea, symbolizing strength, bravery, and loyalty. Mounted on majestic horses, these mythological knights embody both power and grace. The intricate details bring their steeds to life – every muscle defined with precision. These magnificent creatures represent not only wild beauty but also serve as symbols of farm animals or livestock. Picart's engraving transports us back to ancient times when humans looked up at the night sky for guidance and inspiration. It reminds us that even today, we can find solace in gazing upon the stars above – connecting with something greater than ourselves while marveling at nature's wonders.
