EDITORS COMMENTS
Minerva with Two Putti" is a captivating pen and ink drawing by the renowned Dutch artist Jacob de Wit, dating back to the 18th century. The image showcases Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, war, and strategic planning, as she sits majestically with two putti, or cherubs, at her feet. Minerva is depicted in regal attire, adorned with a casque, or helmet, and a cloak draped over her shoulders. She holds a sword in one hand, symbolizing her role as a goddess of war, while the other hand rests on a scroll, embodying her association with wisdom. The two putti, dressed in diapers and winged attire, playfully engage with Minerva. One putto reaches up to touch her hand, while the other holds a quill and inkpot, possibly alluding to the artistic and intellectual pursuits inspired by the goddess. The drawing is executed in pen and brown ink with brush and gray wash, heightened with lead white, and is laid down on blue laid paper mounted on card. This exquisite work of art is a testament to the Rococo era's fascination with mythology, religion, and the human form. The intricate details of the clothing, armor, and weaponry are rendered with great care and precision, making this drawing an essential addition to any art collection focusing on the Low Countries' artistic heritage. The image, with its subtle discoloration, adds to the timeless appeal and historical significance of this magnificent work by Jacob de Wit.
