EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century print showcases a harmonious scene of rural life, depicting the timeless bond between humans and animals. In the foreground, two farmers carefully evaluate a majestic horse and a sturdy cow, highlighting their dedication to selecting only the finest livestock for their agricultural endeavors. Meanwhile, in the right background, an enchanting sight unfolds as a shepherd serenades his flock with melodious tunes on his pan pipes. This idyllic portrayal harkens back to ancient Roman traditions outlined by Virgil in his renowned work "Georgics" which emphasized the importance of agriculture. The monochrome engraving beautifully captures the essence of this pastoral setting, transporting viewers to a simpler time when man and nature coexisted in perfect harmony. The image exudes tranquility and evokes feelings of nostalgia for an era marked by hard work and reverence for the land. Through this artwork's intricate details and skillful composition, we are reminded of the crucial role played by these animals - sheep, cattle, horses, and goats - in sustaining rural communities during that period. It serves as both a celebration of husbandry practices passed down through generations and an homage to Virgil's enduring influence on agricultural traditions. This remarkable print is not just an exquisite piece of art but also a window into history; it encapsulates centuries-old occupations like farming while showcasing Italy's rich cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this masterpiece from Heritage Images' collection attributed to Unknown creator alongside Virgil himself – we can't help but appreciate
