EDITORS COMMENTS
Amphitrite, the Queen of the Sea, is depicted in this stunning chiaroscuro woodcut print by the renowned Dutch artist Hendrik Goltzius, created in the late 1580s. This monochrome masterpiece, printed in black brown and ochre, showcases Goltzius' exceptional skill in using light and shadow to bring depth and dimension to the image. Amphitrite, a beautiful sea nymph and wife of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea, is shown here in an oval-shaped composition, adding to the sense of elegance and grace. She is accompanied by a myriad of mythical beasts and creatures, including dolphins, fish, and other sea creatures, further emphasizing her connection to the ocean. The intricate details and precise lines in this print reflect the artistic innovations of the Renaissance period in Europe, specifically in the Low Countries. This work of art, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, continues to inspire awe and admiration for its masterful execution and timeless subject matter.
