EDITORS COMMENTS
This black-and-white woodcut print from 1563, titled "Iuno ad inferos Iohan Posthii Germershemii Tetrasticha" is a true masterpiece. Created by Johannes Posthius Germershemius and featuring elegant figures by Virgil Solis, this artwork brings to life the enchanting world of Ovid's Metamorphoses. The print showcases the mythical goddess Juno descending into the underworld, surrounded by intricate details and symbolism. The artist's skillful use of woodcut technique creates a mesmerizing contrast between light and shadow, adding depth to every line and curve. Johannes Posthius Germershemius was known for his exceptional talent in capturing emotions through his art. In this piece, he successfully portrays Juno's journey with great intensity - her determined expression reflects both power and vulnerability as she ventures into the realm of shadows. Accompanied by Vergil Solis' exquisite figures, this print becomes an extraordinary visual experience that transports viewers back in time to ancient mythology. It is fascinating to witness how these two renowned artists collaborated seamlessly to create such a harmonious composition. Preserved within the Liszt Collection, this remarkable artwork allows us to appreciate the rich history of artistic collaboration during the Renaissance period. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate audiences today, serving as a testament to the enduring power of classical mythology in inspiring creativity across centuries.
