EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of "POUSSIN: SHEPHERDS. The Shepherds of Arcadie" we are transported to the idyllic world created by Nicolas Poussin in 1629. This masterpiece, painted during the Baroque period, showcases Poussin's exceptional talent for capturing both mythological and Christian themes. The scene depicts a group of shepherds gathered around an ancient tomb in the mythical land of Arcadia. The men and women stand solemnly, their faces filled with contemplation as they read the inscription on the tomb which reads "Et in Arcadia Ego" - even in Arcadia, I exist. This phrase serves as a reminder that death is inevitable even in paradise. Poussin skillfully combines elements from classical mythology and Christianity to create a powerful narrative about mortality and utopia. The painting invites viewers to reflect on life's transience while also offering hope through its pastoral setting. The fine art print captures every intricate detail of Poussin's brushwork, allowing us to appreciate his mastery of light and composition. It is a testament to his ability to evoke emotion through visual storytelling. Whether you are drawn to its historical significance or simply captivated by its beauty, this print is sure to be a cherished addition to any art lover's collection.
