EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the painting "L'imperatrice Catherine II (1729-1796) en Minerve dans le cercle des muses" by Stefano Torelli. Created in the 18th century, during the classical period of Italian art, this masterpiece can be found at the State Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow. The painting depicts Empress Catherine II, also known as Catherine the Great, embodying the goddess Minerva surrounded by a circle of muses. The artist skillfully captures her regal presence and intellectual prowess through his use of vibrant colors and intricate details. Catherine II was not only a powerful ruler but also a patron of arts and culture. In this allegorical representation, she is portrayed as Minerva, the Roman equivalent of Athena from Greek mythology. As Minerva was considered to be the goddess of wisdom, strategic warfare, and inspiration for artists and scholars alike, this choice symbolizes Catherine's own dedication to knowledge and enlightenment. The composition exudes elegance and grace while paying homage to ancient Greek mythology. It serves as a reminder that even great rulers seek inspiration from higher powers such as muses or gods. This print allows us to appreciate Torelli's artistic talent while celebrating Catherine II's multifaceted persona as an empress who valued intellectuality alongside political power.
