EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Angelica Kauffmann's masterpiece, "A Nymph drawing her Bow on a Youth" painted in 1780. The oil on copper painting measures 45.72x52 cm and is housed in the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum in London, UK. The artwork depicts a mesmerizing scene from Cupids Pastime, an attributed poem by Francis Davison dating back to c. 1620. In this neo-classical composition, we witness a nymph gracefully drawing her bow upon a youthful figure amidst a picturesque landscape. The delicate balance between the male and female figures creates an intriguing narrative of surrender and vulnerability. Kauffmann's attention to detail is evident as she skillfully portrays the lush surroundings with towering trees and playful putti hovering above. The goddess-like maiden exudes both strength and sensuality, embodying the essence of mythology within this mythological realm. The oval-shaped format adds depth to the composition while emphasizing the focal point—the interaction between the nymph and her bow-wielding target. This print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate Kauffmann's artistic prowess while immersing themselves in a world where beauty intertwines with ancient tales.
