EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Double Portrait of an Elderly Couple" painted by Georg Flegel in the 17th century. The oil on canvas masterpiece, measuring 134.5x186 cm, is housed in the prestigious National Museum in Stockholm, Sweden. The painting depicts a distinguished elderly couple immersed in their daily life within a German cityscape. Dressed in elaborate ruff clothing and coats that symbolize their social status as part of the bourgeoisie society, they sit comfortably at a tablecloth-covered table inside their dwelling. The furniture and decor reflect the era's aesthetic with intricately designed chairs and delicate crockery. As they enjoy a meal together, various food items such as bread and pitchers are displayed on the table alongside a basket filled with fruits. This inclusion emphasizes both the natural history aspect of botany and scientific exploration prevalent during this time period. The couple's expressions reveal wisdom gained through old age, while their hats add charm to their appearance. Flegel's attention to detail brings forth an incredible realism that captivates viewers even centuries later. Through this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to an era where art was used not only for aesthetic pleasure but also as a reflection of societal norms and values. It serves as a testament to Flegel's skillful craftsmanship and his ability to capture human emotions within his portraits.
