EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Giulio Bonasone, we witness a moment of divine passion and rekindled love. The scene depicts Jupiter's unwavering affection for his wife Juno, reignited when she adorns herself with Venus's Girdle. Created in 1546 during the Renaissance period, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of Greek mythology. The image showcases the powerful embrace between Jupiter and Juno as they come together in an intimate kiss. Their bodies intertwine, symbolizing their eternal bond as deities of Roman mythology. The artist skillfully portrays their emotions through intricate details and delicate lines. As we delve into this artwork, we are transported to a world where gods walk among mortals, where love is both sacred and passionate. It serves as a reminder of the enduring nature of relationships and how even celestial beings experience moments that reignite their affections. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece stands as a testament to Italian heritage art from the 16th century. It invites us to explore ancient mythologies while appreciating the artistic mastery behind it all. Giulio Bonasone's work transcends time, allowing us to connect with stories passed down through generations. This print not only celebrates classical mythology but also reminds us that love has always been at the core of human existence – whether mortal or divine.
