EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cupid Tiger 1652 Etching State Sheet" showcases the intricate artistry of Italian artist Giulio Romano. Created in Rome between 1499 and 1546, this piece depicts a playful scene where Cupid, the Roman god of love, is seen riding on a tiger. The etched details bring out the dynamic movement as Cupid runs towards his destination. In this artwork, Cupid holds a band wound around the tiger's neck, symbolizing his control over wild passions and desires. This image is part of a series consisting of six plates that were etched by Hollar based on drawings by Giulio Romano. The print measures approximately 4 5/16 x 5 13/16 inches (11 x 14.7 cm) and has been cut within the platemark to fit its current state sheet size. It is believed to be part of Nicolas Lanier's collection, who was known for his appreciation of fine art. The design elements in this piece are further enhanced with stucco medallions found in Palazzo Te, an architectural masterpiece also designed by Giulio Romano in Mantua. This print from Artokoloro allows us to appreciate the beauty and skill behind Giulio Romano's work while capturing an enchanting moment between Cupid and his majestic tiger companion.
