EDITORS COMMENTS
Trionfo Di Virtu, or The Triumph of Virtue, is a woodcut print created by Matteo Pagano in 1563, as depicted on page 18 (recto) of his Libro Novo. This intriguing image transports us back to the 16th century, showcasing a lively and vibrant scene filled with animals, birds, and various modes of transportation. At the center of the composition, a triumphant figure, symbolizing Virtue, stands proudly atop a ship, surrounded by the bounties of the land and sea. Below, a pig and a hog are shown being led to the ship, likely to be transported to market or for food. A basket filled with fruit and chickens sits nearby, adding to the abundance of the scene. The woodcut also features various birds, including chickens and a hawk, as well as a ship in the background, sailing across the water. The intricate details and dynamic composition of this print demonstrate the artistic skill and mastery of Matteo Pagano. This historic artwork, now a cherished artifact, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Italy during the Renaissance period. It can be found in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's extensive collection, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The Triumph of Virtue is a visual representation of the interconnectedness of nature, agriculture, and commerce during this time, offering a glimpse into the past and the world of Matteo Pagano.
