EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ALLEGORY OF THE MOON, 1482" takes us back to ancient Rome, where the Roman goddess of the moon, Luna, is beautifully depicted in an allegorical representation. The woodcut originates from Gaius Julius Hyginus' Poeticon Astronomicon and was created in Venice, Italy in 1482. In this artwork, Luna stands tall as a symbol of feminine power and mystique. She holds a bow and arrow, ready to shoot her celestial targets with precision. Her chariot is pulled by marine creatures while she reigns over the night sky. A crab representing Cancer scuttles alongside her charioteer. The artist skillfully captures the essence of Luna's divine presence through intricate details such as her flowing gown and majestic horned headdress. The woodcut technique adds depth and texture to this Renaissance masterpiece. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a world where mythology intertwines with astronomy. It serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with the cosmos throughout history. Whether you appreciate art or have an interest in ancient Roman culture, this print offers an enchanting glimpse into the realm of mythological personification. Let it inspire your imagination and ignite a sense of wonder for both past civilizations and our vast universe beyond.
