"1499 ca: A Glimpse into the World of Drawings and Prints" Step back in time to 1499, where drawings and prints were a window into artistic expression. In one captivating piece, a female figure stands tall with her right hand resting delicately on the margin of the third sheet. Her presence exudes grace and strength. In another print, Neptune takes center stage as he stands proudly in a niche, holding his trident firmly in his left hand. Foliage surrounds him on the right, adding an enchanting touch to this mythical scene. Moving on to "Statue Niobe Worshippers, " Apollo and Diana are joined by other figures in this series of drawings and prints. Their divine presence is palpable as they engage with worshippers who pay homage to their greatness. The story continues with Moses fleeing Egypt, depicted in intricate detail. With his right hand extended forward, he leads the Israelites towards freedom from oppression. Two seated angels steal our attention next; facing left while reading from a songbook. Their heavenly voices surely create an ethereal concert that resonates throughout eternity. A winged genius perched upon a cloud captures our imagination as it sounds its trumpet with its left hand held high. The celestial music fills our ears and lifts our spirits. We then witness Adam and Eve's expulsion from paradise; an angel wields a sword before them as they leave behind their innocence forevermore - a powerful image that speaks volumes about human nature. Perseus taking hold of golden apples becomes the focus of yet another print by artist Cherubino Alberti. His determination shines through as he embarks on this perilous quest. Continuing with Perseus' journey through artistry, we find ourselves amidst the Garden of Hesperides created by both Cherubino Alberti and Zaccaria Mattia. This collaboration brings forth lush imagery that transports us to ancient times.
