EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture "Neptune in his Chariot (Quos Ego)" created by Giovanni Bernardi between 1530 and 1540. The bronze masterpiece, measuring 8.2x6.87 cm, is housed at the prestigious Ashmolean Museum in the University of Oxford, UK. In this remarkable artwork, Neptune, also known as Poseidon in Greek mythology, is depicted riding a majestic chariot pulled by powerful horses. With trident in hand and adorned with waves and seashells, he exudes an air of authority and power over the sea. The intricate details of this sculpture are brought to life through the medium brown patination that adds depth and texture to every element. From the flowing manes of the horses to Neptune's commanding pose, each aspect reflects Bernardi's mastery as an artist. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported into a world where myth meets reality - where gods control nature's elements with ease. The presence of wildlife such as horses further emphasizes Neptune's connection to both land and sea. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with ancient myths and legends. It invites us to explore our own relationship with nature while appreciating artistry that has stood the test of time.
