EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sleeping Amor Non ti fidar che mai non dorme Amore" transports us into a dreamlike landscape where the essence of love lies dormant. The central figure, Sleeping Amor, rests peacefully amidst a serene backdrop. Behind him, a burning torch symbolizes the passion that once ignited his heart. In the foreground, we find an array of symbolic objects that further enrich the narrative. His arrows and bow represent Cupid's power to strike hearts with love's arrow. A painter's palette with brushes signifies creativity and artistic expression while a laurel wreath suggests victory and achievement. The image evokes feelings of tranquility and introspection as it explores themes of sleeping, unconsciousness, and the story of Cupid himself. Perhaps this slumbering cupid hints at a temporary lull in Love's influence or serves as a reminder that even when love appears dormant, its power remains ever-present. Created by Mauro Gandolfi in 1820 through paper engraving techniques, this artwork captures both beauty and depth within its dimensions measuring 346 mm in height and 376 mm in width. As we gaze upon this enchanting portrayal of Sleeping Amor Non ti fidar che mai non dorme Amore, we are invited to reflect on our own experiences with love - its ebbs and flows, its moments of restfulness or awakening - ultimately reminding us that love is an eternal force that never truly sleeps.
