EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jacob Jordaens' masterpiece, "Les filles de Cecrops trouvent l enfant Erichthonios - The Daughters of Cecrops Finding the Child Erichthonius". Painted in the 17th century, this Flemish artwork depicts a mythological scene from ancient Greece. In the painting, we see three beautiful women standing beside a fountain. They are the daughters of King Cecrops and have stumbled upon an unexpected discovery - a baby named Erichthonius. The child is nestled inside a linen-lined basket, surrounded by various objects such as pitchers and birds. The artist skillfully captures the astonishment and curiosity on their faces as they gaze at the foundling. Their naked bodies symbolize purity and innocence while emphasizing their vulnerability in this moment. It is evident that these women care deeply for one another as they come together to protect and nurture this mysterious child. Jordaens' attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke brings life to each figure and object within the composition. This painting not only tells a story but also reflects themes of family, brotherhood, beauty care, hygiene, and mythology. Displayed at Vienna's Art History Museum (Kunsthistorisches Museum), this iconic artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. As we admire Jordaens' masterful technique and delve into Greek mythology through his work, we are reminded of our shared human experiences across time and cultures.
