EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the captivating scene of Mercury and Argus, painted by the talented artist Gregorio De Ferrari in 1710. The artwork, now housed in the prestigious Galleria Nazionale di Palazzo Spinola in Genova, is a true masterpiece of baroque art.
In this allegorical painting, we see Mercury, the god of commerce and traders in Roman mythology, playing his flute to lull Argus to sleep. Argus, a giant with one hundred eyes who was tasked with guarding Io by Hera in Greek mythology, is depicted here as a shepherd entranced by Mercury's music.
The intricate details of this painting are truly mesmerizing - from Mercury's winged helmet and caduceus symbol to Argus' watchful eyes scattered across his body. De Ferrari expertly captures the tension between these two figures in this dramatic moment frozen in time.
As we gaze upon this work of art, we are transported into the world of ancient myths and legends. The rich colors and dynamic composition draw us into the story unfolding before our eyes.
This print serves as a reminder of the enduring power of classical mythology and fine artistry. It is a testament to De Ferrari's skill as an artist and his ability to bring timeless stories to life on canvas.
