EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Venus crowned by Bacchus" we are transported back to the year 1710, where Arnold Houbraken's artistic genius comes alive. The image showcases a mesmerizing scene of Venus Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, being crowned by Bacchus Dionysus, the god of wine and revelry. The composition is rich with symbolism as Venus sits majestically on her throne under a lavish canopy. She exudes grace and elegance while playing a string instrument called a lute or theorbo. The music resonates through the air, filling it with enchantment. Bacchus stands beside her, holding a laurel wreath in his hands ready to crown Venus. Amor, the winged cherub representing love, assists him by cutting an arrow using a whetstone. Instruments such as flutes and tambourines lie nearby on a tarpaulin sheet, waiting to be played. This Dutch masterpiece captures not only the divine beauty of Venus but also celebrates music and merriment associated with Bacchanalian festivities. Quint Lox's skillful reproduction ensures that every detail shines through vividly. As you gaze upon this print from Liszt Collection, allow yourself to be transported into this mythical world where gods reign supreme and artistry flourishes. Let your imagination wander amidst harmonious melodies while basking in the radiance of Venus crowned by Bacchus
