EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned masterpiece, "Rokeby Venus" also known as "The Toilet of Venus". Painted between 1647 and 1651 by the esteemed Spanish artist Diego Velasquez, this oil on canvas artwork is a testament to his exceptional talent. The image depicts the Roman goddess of love and beauty, Venus, accompanied by her mischievous son Cupid. However, what makes this particular piece even more intriguing is its tumultuous history. In 1914, it fell victim to an act of defiance by British suffragette Mary Richardson. She damaged the painting with a sharp object as a protest against women's lack of voting rights at that time. Despite the damage inflicted upon it, this photograph allows us to appreciate the ethereal beauty and grace captured in Velasquez's brushstrokes. It serves as a reminder not only of his mastery but also of the enduring power and influence of ancient Roman mythology in art. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are transported back in time to witness Venus at her mirror—a moment frozen forever on canvas. Let us marvel at Velasquez's ability to portray both vulnerability and strength within his subject matter while contemplating how art can transcend centuries and evoke emotions that resonate with viewers across generations.
