EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1690, we are transported back in time to witness a whimsical scene straight out of Greek mythology. The talented artists Jan Luyken and Francois Halma have skillfully depicted the divine figures of Juno and Jupiter as they take an unconventional journey through the heavens. The focal point of the image is two beautifully crafted carts, each drawn by majestic animals. Juno, known as Hera in Greek mythology, sits regally atop her cart while being pulled by a team of elegant horses. Beside her, Jupiter (Zeus) commands attention with his commanding presence on his own ornate chariot led by mighty oxen. As these celestial beings traverse the skies, it becomes apparent that their carriages are not just ordinary modes of transportation but rather symbols of power and grandeur. These wheeled vehicles resemble luxurious coaches or carriages fit for royalty. The intricate details captured within this print showcase the artistic prowess of Luyken and Halma. Every line and stroke brings life to this fantastical scene where gods roam freely among mortals. Quint Lox's expert curation has preserved this historical gem from the Liszt Collection for us to marvel at today. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, art had the ability to transport us into mythical realms where gods reigned supreme.
