EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Two Cherubs with the Arms of Cardinal Richelieu" transports us back to the Baroque era in 17th century France. Created by Claude Mellan, this exquisite engraving showcases two angelic cherubs adorned with the coat of arms belonging to Armand Jean du Plessis, better known as Cardinal Richelieu. The cherubs, depicted in a symmetrical composition, exude an air of innocence and purity as they stand proudly with their wings spread wide. Their nakedness serves as a metaphor for their celestial nature and adds a touch of vulnerability to their divine presence. Mellan's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his etching technique. The intricate heraldic design on Cardinal Richelieu's coat of arms symbolizes his power and influence within French society during that time period. This artwork not only captures the essence of religious devotion but also reflects the political significance associated with Richelieu's role as both cardinal and duc de Richelieu. Displayed in letterbox format, this panoramic image invites viewers into a world where spirituality intertwines with earthly power. As we gaze upon these cherubs, we are reminded of the rich heritage art that has shaped our understanding of history. Currently housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print stands as a testament to Mellan's artistic prowess and continues to captivate audiences centuries later.
