EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Jupiter and Antiope" painted by Hendrick Goltzius in 1612. The artist, known for his exceptional talent during the Mannerism period, beautifully depicts a scene from Roman mythology. In this painting, we witness the powerful Jupiter (also known as Zeus in Greek mythology) seducing the beautiful mortal woman Antiope. Goltzius skillfully captures the tension and allure of this moment through his meticulous brushstrokes on canvas. The composition is filled with symbolism and allegory, exploring themes such as virginity and desire. A satyr can be seen lurking in the background, adding an element of mystery to this mythological encounter. The use of oil paints enhances every detail of this fine art piece, bringing life to both Jupiter's godlike presence and Antiope's vulnerability. This particular print comes from a private collection that cherishes its historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to 17th-century Netherlands where Goltzius' genius flourished. It serves as a testament to his mastery of technique and ability to capture complex narratives within a single frame.
