EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas print, titled "Angelica and Medoro" by Francois Boucher, transports us to a world of myth and romance. The painting, housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, depicts a scene from Ludovico Ariosto's epic narrative Orlando Furioso. In this enchanting tale, Angelica, the daughter of the pagan king of Cathay, forsakes her love for the Christian knight Orlando after being struck by Cupid's arrow. Instead, she finds solace in the arms of Medoro, a Moorish soldier. As they journey together, Angelica carves their names as an eternal symbol of their passionate bond. The composition is rich with symbolism and Rococo elegance. Angelica stands gracefully amidst lush trees adorned with delicate flowers while wearing a leopard skin cloak that represents her wild nature. Her winged companion cherubs hover above them as witnesses to their forbidden love. Boucher masterfully captures the sensuality and vulnerability of his subjects through his classical style. Medoro's nakedness reflects his North African heritage while also emphasizing their intimate connection. Through this painting, Boucher brings to life Ariosto's mythical world where love transcends boundaries and challenges societal norms. It serves as a reminder that even in ancient tales we can find timeless themes that resonate with our own experiences today.
