EDITORS COMMENTS
Vertumnus and Pomona," a captivating masterpiece by the Flemish Baroque artist Jacob Jordaens, graces the hallowed halls of the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga in Lisbon. Painted in 1638, this oil on canvas work of art is a visual feast for the senses, brimming with allegorical symbolism and literary allusion. At the heart of this painting lies the ancient Roman myth of Vertumnus and Pomona. Vertumnus, the god of seasons and agriculture, is depicted in the guise of an elderly man, wearing a toga and a wreath of ivy and flowers. He is shown courting Pomona, the goddess of fruit trees and gardens, who is depicted as a young woman, holding an apple tree branch and adorned with a wreath of fruits. The scene unfolds in a lush, verdant landscape, filled with an abundance of fruit trees and flowers. The playful Vertumnus assumes various disguises to win Pomona's heart, transforming himself into a shepherd, a farmer, and an old woman. In each guise, he tries to persuade Pomona to taste the fruits of his labor, but she remains steadfast, refusing to yield to his advances. Jordaens masterfully brings this mythical tale to life, imbuing the painting with a sense of timeless beauty and the passing of the seasons. The intricate details of the fruit trees and the rich, vibrant colors of the fruits and flowers are a testament to Jordaens' exceptional skill as a painter. This allegorical work of art is not only a visual delight but also a literary masterpiece, inviting the viewer to explore the depths of the mythological narrative and the symbolism hidden within. In this exquisite painting, Jordaens invites us to reflect on the cycle of life, the passage of time, and the power of love and persistence in overcoming obstacles. The beauty of "Vertumnus and Pomona" lies not only in its stunning visual composition but also in the rich tapestry of meaning and symbolism that it weaves, making it a true masterpiece of Baroque art.
