EDITORS COMMENTS
Ceres (Demeter), the Roman goddess of agriculture and the harvest, is depicted in this beautiful 1889 print titled "Ceres (Demeter) with Crane." The allegorical image, created over a century ago, showcases Ceres as a classical female figure, dressed in a flowing robe and holding a cornucopia, the horn of plenty, overflowing with wheat, rye, and barley. The goddess is accompanied by a crane, a symbol of the tempest and the renewal of life, which adds an extra layer of meaning to the image. The mythological story of Ceres and her daughter Persephone's abduction by Hades, the god of the underworld, is a powerful allegory for the cycle of the seasons and the changing of the harvest. The return of Persephone from the underworld marks the beginning of spring and the renewal of growth, while her departure signifies the approach of winter. This print, created in 1906, captures the essence of the harvest season and the abundance it brings. The autumnal colors and the peaceful scene of Ceres and the crane in a pastoral setting evoke a sense of tranquility and abundance. The image also brings to mind the works of Shakespeare and other classical writers, who often used Ceres as a symbol of the bounty of the earth and the passing of time. The print, with its timeless beauty and symbolic meaning, is a reminder of the cyclical nature of life and the importance of appreciating the gifts of the earth during the harvest season.
