EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Dream-tormented sleeper Somnia fallaci ludunt temeraria nocte" we are transported into a world of unconsciousness and imagination. The scene unfolds in a dimly lit room, where a sleeping man lies on his bed surrounded by haunting figures that torment his dreams. Their eerie presence is palpable, as they seem to dance and play with the vulnerability of his slumber. However, amidst this chaos, there is hope. A woman stands next to the bed, urging the figures to silence and showing them the way out. Her determination to protect the sleeper from their malevolent influence is evident. At the foot of the bed, someone valiantly tries to prevent a griffin from leaping onto it, symbolizing an attempt to safeguard against further disturbance. To add intrigue to this dreamlike composition, above the bed in ethereal clouds emerge unexpected characters: a dragon, a putto holding a jug, and a winged figure warding off personified Envy. These celestial beings bring an element of mysticism and perhaps offer solace or protection during moments of vulnerability. The artist Gerard de Lairesse masterfully captures both the turmoil and potential tranquility within our subconscious minds through intricate etching techniques on paper. This artwork transports us into an alternate reality where dreams reign supreme over our conscious selves.
