EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the engraving "Mars, c. 1533" by Heinrich Aldegrever, a renowned German artist from the 16th century. The artwork measures 9.8x6.5 cm and is currently housed at the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA, thanks to the Junior League Print Fund. In this exquisite piece, we are transported back to ancient Roman mythology as Mars, the god of war and agricultural guardian, takes center stage. Clad in majestic armor that exudes strength and power, Mars stands tall with an air of authority and dominance. The full-length depiction allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this mythical figure - his muscular physique, commanding presence, and intense gaze that hints at his role as a military deity. A magnificent horse accompanies Mars on this journey through time. A symbol of both wildness and domestication in classical antiquity, horses were essential companions for soldiers during battle but also played a vital role in agriculture. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we find ourselves immersed in a world where myth intertwines with reality. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with ancient civilizations and their belief systems while showcasing Aldegrever's exceptional talent for capturing timeless beauty through his engravings.
