EDITORS COMMENTS
Study for Juno (or Diana) with a Peacock," a captivating masterpiece created by the collective genius of Luca Cambiaso, Lazzaro Tavarone, and Bernardo Castello in 1584/85, is an exquisite drawing held in the esteemed halls of the Art Institute of Chicago. This evocative work of art transports us back to the 16th century, inviting us to explore the rich cultural heritage of Italy. The drawing, executed in black chalk, brown ink, and brush and brown wash on ivory laid paper squared in black chalk, pen and ink, depicts a figure of either Juno or Diana, the Roman and Greek goddesses of marriage and childbirth, and the hunt, respectively. The goddess is shown in a contemplative pose, her gaze fixed on a peacock that stands before her, its vibrant plumage spread in a radiant display. The interplay of light and shadow, the delicate use of color and the intricate details of the figures and the peacock's feathers, all contribute to the drawing's breathtaking beauty. The drawing is a testament to the artistic collaboration between Cambiaso, Tavarone, and Castello, each bringing their unique skills to the table. Bernardo Castello, a master of chiaroscuro, lent his expertise in the use of light and shadow, while Lazzaro Tavarone's skillful handling of the pen and ink brought the figures to life. Luca Cambiaso, the primary artist, expertly captured the essence of the goddess and the peacock, creating a work of art that transcends time and continues to captivate viewers to this day. This drawing is not only a conceptual exploration of the goddesses and their mythological significance but also a visual representation of the artistic collaboration and the cultural heritage of the 16th century. It is a must-see for anyone interested in art, mythology, and the rich artistic history of Italy.
