EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Three Graces" by Pieter de Jode II, a renowned Flemish artist from the 17th century. Inspired by Greek mythology, this masterpiece depicts three enchanting women in their full glory. The first state of two engravings beautifully captures their nakedness, symbolizing purity and grace. In this remarkable artwork, the three graces stand tall with flower garlands adorning their heads and bodies. Their full-length figures exude elegance as they intertwine with nature's bountiful plants surrounding them. Each woman represents a different aspect of beauty: charm, joy, and abundance. Pieter de Jode II's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. The intricate lines bring out the delicate features of these mythical beings while emphasizing their divine presence. Displayed at the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this print pays homage to Peter Paul Rubens' influence on de Jode II's work. Rubens was known for his mastery in capturing human form and emotion, which undoubtedly influenced de Jode II's portrayal of these ethereal figures. As we gaze upon this timeless piece, we are transported back to an era where art celebrated femininity and mythological tales were brought to life through skilled craftsmanship. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by Pieter de Jode II and his contribution to heritage art that continues to inspire generations today.
