EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Adriaen Collaert showcases a mesmerizing design for a plate with Thetis on a shell in a medallion bordered by sea monsters. Created around the year 1600, this artwork takes us back to ancient Greece and its rich mythology. The intricate engraving skillfully depicts Thetis, a Nereid from Greek mythology, gracefully seated on a seashell as her divine presence is celebrated. The attention to detail is remarkable as mythical creatures of the sea surround the medallion, enhancing the ethereal atmosphere of this piece. These mythical beasts seem to come alive with their fierce expressions and elaborate scales, adding depth and texture to the composition. Collaert's mastery shines through in his ability to capture both beauty and power in this design. The use of nudity highlights Thetis' vulnerability while also emphasizing her divine nature. It serves as an artistic representation of her connection with water and symbolizes purity. This seventeenth-century print not only transports us into ancient Greek culture but also reminds us of the enduring influence that mythological creatures have had throughout history. Admiring this exquisite object allows us to appreciate Collaert's talent for bringing these fantastical beings to life through his engravings.
