EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century oil painting, titled "Erichthonius found by the Daughters of Cecrops," is a masterpiece by the renowned Dutch artist Hendrick Heerschop. The mythological scene depicts the discovery of Erichthonius, the son of the goddess Athena, by the daughters of Cecrops. According to Greek mythology, Erichthonius was either found with a snake coiled around him or was half-human and half-serpent. Heerschop's painting beautifully captures the moment of surprise and awe on the faces of the daughters as they gaze upon the unusual infant. The boy, dressed in fine silk clothing, lies in a basket adorned with intricate textile patterns. The women, dressed in rich, colorful garments, are dressed in the fashion of the Dutch Golden Age. The painting's intricate details and lifelike portrayal of the characters transport us back to a time of myth and wonder. The use of oil on canvas allows for a rich, textured appearance, adding depth and dimension to the scene. The painting's heritage, as a part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Dutch art from the seventeenth century. This painting is a must-see for anyone interested in mythology, art history, or the cultural heritage of Europe.
