EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Diana as patroness of the hunting Venatio" showcases the powerful and enigmatic goddess Diana surrounded by an array of hunting weapons, including a rifle, crossbow, hunting dogs, and birds. The intricate details in this artwork transport us to a world where the chase is both thrilling and majestic. In the background on the left side of the image, we witness hunters on horseback pursuing a wild pig with unwavering determination. On the right side, we are drawn to a serene river scene where fishermen engage in their craft. These contrasting elements highlight different aspects of nature's bounty while emphasizing Diana's role as protector and guide. According to the attached caption, this print serves as a cautionary tale against women's cunning strategies. It warns against their ability to deceive men through manipulation or deceitful tactics known as "womens lists". This intriguing allegorical aspect adds depth to our understanding of Diana's influence over not only hunting but also human interactions. Part of an album featuring specific aspects related to Diana and her patronage, this particular print captures essential themes such as boar-hunting, sportsmanship, animals used in hunting (including birds), and loyal hunting dogs. Created by an anonymous artist from Alkmaar between 1597-1646 using paper engraving techniques measuring approximately 215mm high by 282mm wide; it offers us a glimpse into both historical context and artistic mastery.
