EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite painting "Vertumnus and Pomona" by Frans Francken II, a renowned Flemish artist from the 17th century. The oil on canvas masterpiece measures 49x64 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The artwork depicts Vertumnus, the Roman god of seasons, seducing Pomona, the goddess of fruits and fruit-trees. This enchanting scene portrays a couple deeply in love as they navigate through a lush garden adorned with vibrant flowers. In an act of disguise, Vertumnus appears before Pomona as different characters to win her affections. The composition exudes a sense of tranquility and harmony as it captures their tender moments amidst nature's bountiful offerings. A wheelbarrow filled with ripe fruits symbolizes abundance while a windmill signifies agricultural prosperity. Originally attributed to Abraham Govaerts but later recognized as Francken's creation, this painting beautifully encapsulates themes of love, desire, and fertility within its intricate details. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide. As we admire this remarkable piece through this high-quality print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are transported into an era where mythology intertwines with human emotions – reminding us that even gods can be smitten by mortal beauty.
