EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite oil painting, titled "Venus, Bacchus and Ceres with Mortals in a Garden of Love," is a masterpiece created by the Flemish artist Louis de Caullery between 1590 and 1621. The painting showcases a lively scene of mythological figures and mortals reveling in a beautiful garden setting. At the center, the Roman goddess Venus, the embodiment of love and beauty, is depicted reclining on a velvet-covered couch, surrounded by admiring men. The god of wine and fertility, Bacchus, is shown to her left, playing his lyre and surrounded by his followers, who are in various stages of drunken revelry. To Venus' right, Ceres, the goddess of agriculture and harvest, stands between two nude women, offering them ears of wheat and corn. The garden itself is a feast for the eyes, with a pergola adorned with flowers and vines, and a colorful array of fruits and vegetables scattered about. Mortals, both male and female, are engaged in various recreational activities, such as playing music, socializing, and enjoying the bounty of the garden. The painting is a testament to the Renaissance fascination with mythology and the human form, as well as the joy and beauty of nature. With its rich colors, intricate details, and lively composition, it is a true masterpiece of Flemish art from the Low Countries, now housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
