The Enamored Couple - Lucelle and Ascagnes, 1616
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating black and white etching by Willem Pietersz. Buytewech that transports us back to the 17th century. This exquisite print showcases two elegantly dressed figures, representing the epitome of love and romance. The couple's clothing reflects the fashion of their time, with intricate details such as lace collars and neck ruffs adding a touch of refinement. As they gaze into each other's eyes, their connection is palpable, evoking a sense of deep affection and tenderness. In this intimate scene, we see them surrounded by symbols of abundance and pleasure. A dish filled with luscious grapes sits before them, symbolizing fertility and indulgence. The concept of love is further emphasized through the presence of crockery on the table - an indication that these lovers are sharing not only their hearts but also their meals together. Willem Pietersz. Buytewech masterfully captures the essence of passion in this artwork. Through his skilled use of shading and line work, he brings life to every detail - from the delicate folds in their garments to the subtle expressions on their faces. As we admire "The Enamored Couple" we are reminded that love transcends time and place; it remains eternal throughout centuries. This remarkable piece from Dutch heritage art now finds its home at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in Netherlands where it continues to inspire viewers with its timeless depiction
