EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection depicts a mesmerizing scene of transformation and desire. Titled "Vertumnus Transforms Himself, Old Woman Attempts" it showcases an intricate artwork that tells a tale of love and deception. In this image, we witness Vertumnus, the Roman god of seasons and change, assuming the form of an old woman in his attempt to woo Pomona, the goddess of fruit trees. The artist skillfully captures their encounter with meticulous etching and engraving techniques. The print is part of "Les Métamorphoses d'Ovide en Latin et François de la Traduction" a renowned collection by Abbé Banier from 1765. Its historical significance is further emphasized by its association with L'Académie Royale des Inscriptions et Belles Lettres. Measuring 7 5/8 inches by 5 3/16 inches (194 cm x 131 cm), this third-state print showcases the mastery of Jean Leveau and Augustin Saint-Aubin, two prominent French artists from the late eighteenth century. They brilliantly bring to life François Boucher's original work dating back to 1703-1770. This particular print offers a glimpse into art history while evoking emotions through its rich details and storytelling. It serves as a testament to human creativity throughout centuries and reminds us of our eternal fascination with mythology and romance.
