EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a magnificent pageant that took place on the River Arno in Florence. The image showcases the grandeur of the event, which was held to celebrate the marriage of the esteemed Grand Duke Cosimo de' Medici. In this elaborate procession, we see Calais Zetes leading Boreas Oreithyia and other female-headed sea creatures as they are guided by Borea et Oritia. The shipdeck at the center of the picture is adorned with intricate details, including a prow and stern, symbolizing power and elegance. The artist behind this remarkable etching is Remigio Cantagallina, an Italian master known for his skillful craftsmanship. His attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing not only the beauty of each character but also their mythical essence. As we gaze upon this print, our imagination takes flight as we envision ourselves witnessing this extraordinary celebration firsthand. We can almost hear music filling the air and feel a sense of awe as these majestic figures glide along the river's surface. This artwork serves as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity throughout history. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people found joy in celebrating love through extravagant spectacles like this one.
