EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Sleeping Diana Watched by Two Fauns, 1877" showcases the artistic brilliance of Arnold Bocklin. This masterpiece can be found in the esteemed collection of the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen in Dusseldorf. In this enchanting painting, we witness a mesmerizing scene that combines elements of beauty, fantasy, and mythology. The central figure is the slumbering goddess Diana, known for her association with hunting and fertility in Roman mythology. As she peacefully rests, two fauns stand guard over her. Bocklin's meticulous brushstrokes bring to life a world filled with symbolism and allegory. The fauns represent wood spirits from Greek mythology while also embodying aspects of ancient Rome's patronage towards peasants and shepherds. Additionally, Pan, the god of free nature, watches over Diana as well. This artwork transports us into a realm where gods and mortals coexist harmoniously amidst lush landscapes and ethereal beings. Through his use of oil on canvas technique, Bocklin captures every intricate detail with finesse. As we gaze upon this stunning piece of fine art imagery from Schwitzerland-born artist Arnold Bocklin (1827-1901), we are reminded not only of his immense talent but also how art has the power to transport us to fantastical worlds beyond our imagination.
