EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite fresco titled "Triumph of Venus and Sign of Taurus, scenes from Month of April" by Francesco del Cossa. Created around 1470, this masterpiece can be found on the east wall of the Hall of the Months in Palazzo Schifanoia, also known as the Palace of Joy, located in Ferrara, Emilia-Romagna, Italy. The fresco depicts a mesmerizing allegory for the month of April. In this scene, Venus triumphantly takes center stage while being accompanied by the zodiac sign Taurus. The composition is adorned with Corinthian pillars that add an air of grandeur to the artwork. Venus' chariot triumphs through a celestial backdrop as she is surrounded by symbolic elements such as swans and hares. These creatures represent beauty and fertility respectively. Above her chariot lies a constellation depicting Taurus, further emphasizing its significance during this time. Francesco del Cossa's masterful use of light and dark creates a sense of depth and drama within this piece. The artist skillfully captures both mythological symbolism and astrological references to convey his message. This print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail present in this 15th-century Italian artwork. It serves as a reminder not only of our rich cultural heritage but also highlights how art has always been intertwined with mythology and astrology throughout history.
