EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite copperplate engraving by Tommaso Piroli, titled "Antichità di Ercolano" or "Antiquities of Herculaneum," depicts the charming mythological figure of Chloris or Flora, the nymph and wife of Zephyrus, the god of the west wind. In this scene, Chloris is shown in a pastoral setting, gracefully picking a bloom from a bush while holding a vase filled with an abundance of vibrant flowers. The delicate intricacy of the engraving brings the classical beauty of the scene to life, transporting us back to ancient times. Chloris, also known as Flora, was a beloved goddess in Roman mythology, symbolizing the blooming of spring and the beauty of nature. Her union with Zephyrus, the god of the west wind, is said to have brought forth the goddess of spring, Flora. This painting captures the essence of their love story, as Chloris, personifying the rebirth and renewal of nature, lovingly tends to her floral offerings. The Antiquities of Herculaneum, from which this engraving is derived, is a significant collection of archaeological findings from the ancient Roman town of Herculaneum, buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79. This engraving, produced in Rome in 1789, showcases the exquisite detail and craftsmanship of the time, making it a valuable addition to any collection of classical art or mythology.
