EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 17th century, showcasing Plate 8 of Stefano della Bella's Caprice faict par de la Bella series. In this etching, two horsemen wearing hats can be seen on the right side of the image. Each rider has a woman seated behind them as they ride towards the left in profile across a river. The composition includes a tree at far right, adding to the scenic countryside atmosphere. Stefano della Bella, an Italian artist known for his detailed etchings, created this piece around 1642. The print beautifully portrays the concept of riders exploring the country on horseback with women accompanying them. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this exquisite artwork by Stefano della Bella in their collection. It is part of their heritage art display and showcases both male and female figures enjoying leisurely rides through picturesque scenery. This print provides viewers with a glimpse into life during the 17th century, highlighting not only people's mode of transportation but also their position within society. With its striking black and white contrast, it offers an intriguing visual experience that transports us back in time to appreciate both artistic skill and historical context.
