EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Philemon and Baucis" by Bramantino, displayed at the Wallraf Richartz Museum in Cologne, Germany, transports viewers to a world of divine intervention and miraculous hospitality. Painted around 1500 with oil on panel, this masterpiece depicts the heartwarming tale of Philemon and Baucis who unknowingly welcomed Jupiter and Mercury disguised as weary travelers into their humble abode. In the image, we witness Philemon and Baucis seated at a table adorned with a wine bowl that miraculously replenishes itself. The couple's benevolence is symbolized by a cow being milked nearby while a goose seeks refuge under the table. This act of kindness bestowed upon the disguised gods earned them great rewards – they were made priests of a temple. As time passed, Philemon transformed into an oak tree while Baucis became a lime tree after their deaths. Their eternal bond preserved through nature serves as an enduring testament to their extraordinary generosity. This enchanting artwork captures not only the essence of hospitality but also showcases Bramantino's exceptional talent for storytelling through his brushstrokes. It invites us to reflect on our own capacity for compassion and selflessness in today's world.
