EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture "Vertumme and Pomona" created by Jean Baptiste II Lemoyne in 1760. Located at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this stunning piece of art depicts a love scene from antiquity. The image captures a colorful couple engaged in courtship, surrounded by elements of mythology and romance. The god Vertumnus is disguised as various characters to seduce the beautiful goddess Pomona. Cupid, the mythological figure of love, hovers above them, adding an enchanting touch to the scene. The sculpture beautifully portrays the intricate details of each character's expression and attire. It reflects the artistic style prevalent during the eighteenth century with its meticulous craftsmanship and vibrant colors. As we delve into this artwork's symbolism, we are reminded of themes such as seduction, disguise, paganism, and religion. The transvestite element adds an intriguing layer to their interaction while highlighting gender fluidity within mythology. Lemoyne's masterpiece transports us back to a time when divine beings mingled with mortals in lush gardens like this one depicted here. This print serves as a testament to his skillful interpretation of ancient stories that continue to captivate audiences today. Frank Buffetrille has expertly captured every detail through his lens while preserving the essence of this remarkable artwork for all art enthusiasts to appreciate.
