EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cupid Lion 1652 Etching State Sheet" transports viewers back to the artistic world of the 17th century. Created by Wenceslaus Hollar, a Bohemian artist born in Prague, and inspired by Giulio Romano's work, this etching showcases their collaboration across borders and time. The image depicts Cupid, the Roman god of love, riding on a lion while walking in profile. Cupid is seen holding a band wound around his neck and forehead, symbolizing his control over desire and passion. This particular print is part of a series consisting of six plates that Hollar etched based on drawings by Giulio Romano. Hollar's attention to detail is evident in this piece as he skillfully captures the intricate features of both Cupid and the lion. The composition exudes gracefulness and power simultaneously. Originally collected by Nicolas Lanier for his stucco medallions at Palazzo Te, this artwork has found its way into Artokoloro's collection. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of these two renowned artists from different corners of Europe. As we gaze upon this stunning print today, we are reminded not only of their talent but also how art transcends time and place.
