EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Delacroix's masterpiece "Winter" from his renowned Four Seasons series. Painted in 1862, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 198x167.5 cm and is housed at the Museu de Arte in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The scene depicts Juno, the goddess of marriage and childbirth in Roman mythology, commanding Aeolus to unleash his destructive winds upon Ulysses' fleet. The power dynamic between these mythological figures is palpable as Juno issues her order with authority and determination. Delacroix masterfully captures the essence of winter through a stormy seascape dotted with rocky coastlines. The tumultuous waves crashing against the rocks evoke a sense of danger and chaos that mirror the tempestuous relationship between Juno and Aeolus. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing life to each element within the composition - from the billowing wind personified by Aeolus to Juno's regal presence amidst nature's fury. This print serves as a testament to Delacroix's artistic prowess and his ability to convey complex narratives through visual storytelling. It invites viewers into a world where Greek mythology intertwines with human emotions, leaving us captivated by both its beauty and underlying symbolism. With its rich historical context and timeless aesthetic appeal, this print is sure to be a cherished addition for any art enthusiast or lover of classical mythology.
