EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a stunning architectural feature from the 18th century - "The apotheosis of James I". At the center, an oval-shaped scene depicts the glorious ascension of King James I, surrounded by intricate friezes adorned with playful putti and garlands on either side. Created in 1720 by Simon Gribelin, this allegorical artwork showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image takes us back to a time when England was under the reign of Charles I, who is also depicted in this masterpiece. As we gaze upon this historical piece, we are reminded of the significance of these kings - defenders of faith and rulers over Great Britain and Ireland. The Palace of Whitehall serves as the backdrop for this grand composition. Its majestic architecture adds depth and grandeur to the overall scene. The artist's choice to present this work in black and white enhances its timeless quality, allowing us to appreciate every delicate stroke made by Sir Peter Paul Rubens. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print preserves Gribelin's remarkable interpretation for generations to come. It offers viewers a glimpse into English history while showcasing artistic excellence that transcends time.
