EDITORS COMMENTS
"This stunning oil painting, titled Lucina, brings to life the ancient Roman goddesses Juno and Diana, who were revered for their roles in childbirth and protection of women during labor. The goddess Lucina, depicted in this artwork, is shown gracefully standing amidst a lush, verdant landscape, her serene expression radiating a sense of comfort and nurturing. The goddesses' traditional attributes, such as the cornucopia and the crescent moon, are subtly incorporated into the painting, adding to its mythological allure. Below the goddess, a large array of children playfully frolic and populate the grounds, symbolizing the fruitful blessings of motherhood. The vibrant colors and intricate brushstrokes used by the artist bring the scene to life, creating a captivating and enchanting image. This painting, which dates back to circa 1919, is a beautiful testament to the enduring power and significance of motherhood throughout history. It is a poignant reminder of the love, protection, and nurturing that mothers provide, and the joy and wonder that children bring into the world. This artwork is taken from the March of the Women Collection, a valuable and diverse archive of historical images from Mary Evans Picture Library. The collection spans various themes and time periods, offering a rich visual resource for scholars, artists, and anyone with an interest in history and culture." Volume 10, Harry Morley (not the company) is the source of this exquisite painting, and it remains a timeless masterpiece that continues to inspire and captivate viewers to this day.
