EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning colour lithograph print captures a scene from Torquato Tasso's epic poem La Gerusalemme Liberata, specifically Canto VII, stanza 6. The image depicts an elderly man in a peaceful setting, diligently weaving baskets next to his flock of sheep. The detailed illustration by Fabio Fabbi beautifully brings to life the pastoral landscape described in Tasso's work. The quote accompanying the image reads: "E vede un uom canuto all'ombre amene / Tesser fiscelle alla sua greggia accanto." This poetic description perfectly complements the serene and idyllic scene portrayed in the artwork. La Gerusalemme Liberata tells the story of the First Crusade and is considered one of the greatest works of Italian literature. This particular illustration captures a moment of quiet contemplation amidst the chaos and conflict of war, highlighting themes of peace, craftsmanship, and everyday life during this tumultuous historical period. Fabbi's skillful use of colour and composition adds depth and emotion to this timeless tale, making it a captivating piece for any art lover or admirer of classic literature. This print serves as a beautiful reminder of the power of storytelling through both words and images.
