EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Eve - Notre Commune Mere, 1403" transports us back in time to the enchanting world of the 15th century. Created by the anonymous artist known as Master of Berrys Cleres Femmes, this illustration is part of Giovanni Boccaccio's manuscript De Claris mulieribus, housed in the Bibliotheque nationale de France. The image depicts Eve, our common mother, amidst a lush forest teeming with vibrant wildflowers. With her naked form leaning on her elbow and surrounded by nature's beauty, she exudes an air of both vulnerability and strength. The use of gold leaf adds a touch of opulence to this ethereal scene. Intriguingly, we see another figure standing beside Eve – Adam himself. Their presence hints at their timeless connection and the complex dynamics between man and woman throughout history. This artwork beautifully captures not only religious symbolism but also explores themes such as femininity, spirituality, and human relationships. It invites contemplation about our origins and our place within nature's embrace. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Verve magazine's July-October 1939 issue, we are reminded that art has the power to transcend time and bring forth emotions that resonate across centuries.
