EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Allegory of Winter" transports us back to the late 17th century. Created by Nicolas Bonnart, a renowned artist of his time, this exquisite print captures the essence of the winter season in all its glory. In this scene, we find ourselves in an opulent interior adorned with lavish furnishings and intricate details. A roaring fireplace takes center stage, emanating warmth and comfort throughout the room. A beautifully dressed woman sits gracefully beside it, her costume reflecting the fashion trends of that era. She shields herself from the cold with a luxurious fur cloak and wears an elegant headdress embellished with ermine trim. With a fan in hand and a beauty spot adorning her face, she exudes both style and sophistication. The flames dance hypnotically within the fireplace as if they are performing solely for her pleasure. The personification of winter is vividly depicted through this enchanting artwork. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to another time - a time when winters were embraced rather than endured. It serves as a reminder that even amidst freezing temperatures outside, there is always solace to be found indoors by basking in the warmth of both fireplaces and artistry alike.
