EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection captures a mesmerizing scene of mythological love and enchantment. In the center, we see Polyphemus, the one-eyed giant, deeply infatuated with Galatea, a beautiful sea nymph. With his pan flute in hand, he serenades her with heartfelt melodies as she gracefully rides over the waves on a dolphin-drawn heart shell. Surrounding them are Tritons and nereids joyfully playing in the water, adding to the magical atmosphere. A convex cloth delicately floats around Galatea's head, symbolizing her connection to Auro, the spirit of air. The presence of putti floating in mid-air signifies triumph or celebration for Galatea. As Polyphemus continues playing his syrinx passionately, other gods of wind such as Aura and tritons join in harmoniously. Nereids - daughters of Nereus - dance alongside sea nymphs to create an ethereal spectacle. The artist behind this masterpiece is Pieter van den Berge from Amsterdam between 1694 and 1737. This paper etching measures approximately 458mm by 570mm. Immerse yourself in this extraordinary depiction where mythology intertwines with artistry to depict an enduring tale of love and beauty that transcends time itself.
