EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jan van Bike Miel's masterpiece, "Sine Cerere et Baccho friget Venus" an oil on canvas painting from 1645. The artwork measures 142.5x162.7 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The image depicts a scene set outdoors, amidst a picturesque countryside landscape. A small group of people, including men and women, are gathered together in conversation. The painting exudes a sense of naturalism and realism, with the artist skillfully capturing the details of each individual's attire and expression. The central figure is a partially dressed woman who appears to be advising or assisting another person nearby. Her bare chest adds an element of sensuality to the composition while also emphasizing her vulnerability and humanity. Surrounded by fields of wheat, this mythical scene draws inspiration from ancient Roman mythology where Venus, the goddess of love, requires both Ceres (goddess of agriculture) and Bacchus (god of wine) for her power to flourish. Miel's masterful use of color and brushwork brings this mythological narrative to life with remarkable clarity. This mid-17th-century artwork serves as a testament to European artistry during that era. Overall, this print captures not only the beauty but also the complexity inherent in relationships between humans as well as their dependence on nature for sustenance and fulfillment
