EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Capricorn, from the Signs of the Zodiac" by Jacob Jordaens. Painted in oil on canvas, this masterpiece is housed in the Palais du Luxembourg in Paris, France. The artwork adorns the ceiling of the East Gallery, which is now an annex to the Library of the Senate. In this painting, Jordaens beautifully captures Capricorn as a female nymph accompanied by a young boy and a goat. The nymph, believed to be Ariadne or Amalthea, delicately milks a bowl held by the boy while sitting on top of a goat's back. This celestial scene represents December and symbolizes Capricorn's association with determination and ambition. Jordaens' attention to detail shines through as he portrays each element with precision and grace. The composition exudes elements of Northern Renaissance artistry combined with astrological symbolism. Originally part of Jordaens Hotel in Antwerp, this remarkable piece was acquired by the Senate in 1802 and arranged according to the Republican Calendar. Today it stands as a testament to Jordaens' artistic prowess and continues to captivate viewers with its intricate storytelling. This print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate every brushstroke and immerse themselves in this timeless depiction of Capricorn within their zodiacal realm.
