EDITORS COMMENTS
Venus and Bacchus (Without Ceres and Bacchus Venus would Frieze)," a captivating pen and brown ink drawing with brush and brown wash over traces of charcoal by the Dutch artist Abraham Bloemaert, dates back to the late 16th century. This masterpiece, currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcases the artistic prowess of the Mannerist period in the Low Countries. The drawing depicts the Roman mythological scene of Venus, the goddess of love, and Bacchus, the god of wine, fertility, and revelry. Venus is shown in her divine beauty, lying down nude on a velvet-like surface, her voluptuous body adorned with intricate details, while Bacchus, the ever-youthful deity, stands beside her, clad in animal skins and holding a cup filled with wine. In this rendition, Bloemaert chose to exclude Ceres, the goddess of agriculture, and Bacchus's mother. The title "Venus and Bacchus (Without Ceres and Bacchus Venus would Frieze)" suggests that the artist may have intended to focus on the sensual and passionate aspects of the mythological tale, as opposed to the more traditional representation of the trio. The delicate interplay of light and shadow, combined with the intricate details and expressive lines, highlights the artist's exceptional skill in pen and brown ink drawing. The use of opaque white watercolour adds depth and texture to the image, while the discolouration on the buff laid paper adds an element of age and authenticity. This drawing is an exquisite example of the artistic innovation and mastery of the Dutch Mannerist tradition, inviting viewers to explore the captivating world of Roman mythology and the human form.
