EDITORS COMMENTS
Bellona, the Goddess of War, gracefully seated on her Trophies - a captivating portrayal by Leon Davent in the 16th century. This black and white etching captures the essence of power and strength as Bellona reclines with poise and confidence. Dressed in intricate armor that reflects the fashion clothing of the era, Bellona epitomizes both beauty and fierceness. Her helmet, shield, and weaponry symbolize her role as a protector and warrior. The attention to detail in her attire showcases Davent's mastery in depicting historical clothing dress. As a representation of Greek mythology, this artwork transports us back to an ancient time when gods and goddesses ruled over mortal lives. Bellona's presence evokes a sense of awe while reminding us of the eternal struggle between peace and war. Located at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print is part of the School of Fontainebleau collection - a testament to French Renaissance artistry. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today. Leon Davent skillfully captures not only Bellona's physical attributes but also conveys her inner strength through his artistic interpretation. This portrait serves as an homage to women who have defied societal norms throughout history by embracing their own power.
