EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, titled "A Horse" by Stefano della Bella, is a striking representation of a horse and rider from the 17th century. The image is part of della Bella's series "Diversi animali," created during the Baroque era in Italy. The horse, with its powerful muscles and determined expression, seems poised for action, while the rider, clad in traditional Italian attire, maintains a firm grip on the reins. The intricate details of the horse's mane and tail, as well as the textured depiction of the rider's clothing, showcase della Bella's exceptional skill as an etcher. This print, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), was once part of the renowned Mariette Pierre-Jacques collection. Pierre-Jacques, a French art dealer, amassed an extensive collection of Old Master prints during the 20th century. The collection, which includes works by renowned artists such as Rembrandt, Durer, and Dürer, is now dispersed among various museums and institutions around the world. The image, created in black and white, transports us back to the 1640s, offering a glimpse into the past. The horse and rider, frozen in time, serve as a reminder of the rich artistic heritage that spans centuries and continents. This etching, with its timeless beauty and intricate details, continues to captivate and inspire viewers, making it an invaluable addition to LACMA's collection and the world of art history.
