EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Daughters of Sun (Saules meita)" created by Janis Rozentals in 1912. Housed in the prestigious State Art Museum of Republic Latvia, Riga, this piece is a true gem of Baltic mythology and fine art. The painting depicts an allegorical scene inspired by Latvian folklore and mythology. In the foreground, three ethereal figures stand gracefully against a backdrop of lush landscapes. These are the Daughters of Sun, celestial beings who personify beauty and radiance. With their flowing gowns and golden crowns, they embody the power and warmth associated with the sun goddess Saule. Rozentals' masterful use of gouache and pastel on cardboard brings out vibrant colors that enhance the symbolism within this piece. The artist skillfully captures both mythological elements and naturalistic details to create a harmonious composition. Through his work, Rozentals not only pays homage to Latvian heritage but also explores universal themes such as femininity, spirituality, and nature's abundance. This painting serves as a testament to his artistic prowess and deep understanding of cultural symbolism. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image from 1912, we are transported into a world where myth intertwines with reality – inviting us to contemplate our connection with ancient traditions while appreciating timeless beauty captured on canvas.
