EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Diana visits sleeping Endymion Cintia formosum quem diligit Endimionem / Sopitum spectat, ne videatur amans" we are transported into the mystical world of mythology. The renowned artist Giovanni Girolamo Frezza skillfully brings to life the enchanting tale of Diana, the goddess of the hunt and moon, as she floats gracefully on a cloud next to the slumbering figure of Endymion. With delicate precision, Frezza captures Diana's longing gaze as she leans in to steal a kiss from her beloved. The ethereal atmosphere is further enhanced by the presence of a peaceful sleeping dog in the foreground, adding an element of tranquility and companionship. The theme of unconsciousness permeates this artwork, symbolizing both physical sleep and metaphorical surrender to love. As Luna (the moon), Diana's nocturnal visitation adds an air of mystery and romance to this scene. Created in 1713 using paper and engraving techniques, this print showcases Frezza's mastery in capturing intricate details and evoking emotions through his artistry. It is part of "The life of Diana" series which explores various aspects of her divine existence. As we behold this mesmerizing image from Liszt Collection, we are reminded that even gods can be vulnerable when it comes to matters of the heart.
