EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, titled "Vue de l'Eglise de la Madonna del Popolo à Rome," was created by the skilled artist Israel Silvestre between 1640 and 1660. The image transports us back to the Baroque era in Italy, specifically to the bustling city of Rome. In the foreground, we see a herder with his cattle, grazing peacefully in a pastoral setting. The cattle are depicted with intricate detail, their forms etched onto the laid paper with precision. In the background, the imposing facade of the Church of Santa Maria del Popolo dominates the scene. The Roman Catholic church, a significant architectural and religious landmark, is bathed in the soft, monochrome tones of the etching. The image, reminiscent of the Renaissance period, showcases the rich heritage of art and culture that flourished during the 17th century in Italy. Israel Silvestre, also known as Israel Silvestre the Younger, was a French artist who spent a considerable amount of time in Italy, and his works reflect the influence of the Baroque style. This etching, now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of the art of the past.
