Miravan, 1772
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating mezzotint print created by the skilled hand of British artist Valentine Green. This evocative image, dated back to the 18th century, showcases a group of men clad in aristocratic attire, gathered around the mausoleum of a nobleman named Miravan. The men appear to be in various stages of dismay and shock, with one man in the foreground turning away in apparent distress. The setting of the print is a tranquil, rural location, with the mausoleum standing proudly against a backdrop of lush greenery. The black and white contrast of the mezzotint on off-white laid paper adds a sense of timelessness and gravitas to the scene. The nobleman's tomb is the center of attention, and it is clear that a crime has taken place. The men are seen rummaging through the tomb, possibly in search of treasure. The expression of the man turning away suggests that he has discovered something disturbing or unsettling. The print is reminiscent of the works of other renowned 18th-century British artists such as Joseph Wright of Derby and Thomas Wright. The use of mezzotint, a labor-intensive printmaking technique, adds depth and texture to the image, making it a valuable addition to any art collection. The print, titled "Miravan, 1772," is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of the aristocracy and the concept of treasure hunting in 18th-century England. This work of art is now part of the esteemed collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and intrigue visitors from around the world.
