EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Now, I understand the mother wolf of Rome" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the private and public lives of animals. Created by Louis-Henri Breviere, this wood engraving showcases his artistic talent in capturing anthropomorphic scenes. In this particular artwork, we witness a powerful representation of the iconic mother wolf from Roman mythology. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays her strength and nurturing nature. The female wolf stands tall, exuding an air of authority while simultaneously displaying tenderness towards her young cubs. The use of black and white adds a timeless quality to the image, emphasizing its historical significance. Through this piece, Breviere explores themes such as gender roles and animal behavior within society. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this print serves as a reminder of our deep connection with nature throughout history. It invites viewers to reflect on our relationship with animals and how they have been depicted in various art forms over time. Louis-Henri Breviere's work continues to captivate audiences today, transporting us back to an era where imagination merged seamlessly with reality through artistry like never before.
