EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Nicolas Poussin's masterpiece, "Et in Arcadia ego (Les bergers d'Arcadie or The Arcadian Shepherds)" from 1637-1638. Held at the prestigious Musee du Louvre in Paris, this painting is a true testament to French artistic brilliance. In this scene, we see four shepherds gathered together in a picturesque pastoral setting. Dressed in vibrant yellow robes and classical attire of the 17th century, they exude an air of tranquility and contemplation. One shepherd stands tall, pointing towards something unseen, while another kneels with his hand on his hip as if engaged in deep thought. The composition is rich with symbolism and invites viewers to ponder its meaning. Poussin masterfully captures the essence of rural life through meticulous attention to detail and skillful use of color. The baroque era comes alive through his brushstrokes, creating a harmonious blend of nature and humanity. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers a glimpse into the genius mind of Nicolas Poussin. It reminds us that even amidst idyllic landscapes like Arcadia, mortality looms ("Et in Arcadia ego" translates to "Even in Arcadia I exist"). With every glance at this artwork, one can't help but be transported back to the 17th century and appreciate the timeless beauty it represents.
