Le Nozze degli Dei - Frontispiece, 1637
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Stefano della Bella is a captivating print that captures the essence of celebration and grandeur. The artwork serves as the frontispiece for the book "Le Nozze Degli Dei Favola dell Ab Gio. Carlo Coppola" which was performed in Florence during the wedding of Grand Duke Ferdinand II of Tuscany and Princess Vittoria Principessa D'Urbino. In this intricately detailed etching on laid paper restrike, della Bella beautifully depicts a scene from Greek mythology where gods and goddesses come together to celebrate a divine marriage. The composition features an opulent curtain backdrop with elegant lettering announcing the title of the play. The artist's skillful use of graphic design brings life to each character, showcasing their elaborate costumes and regal presence. This artwork not only showcases della Bella's talent but also pays homage to Italian literature and culture during the seventeenth century. As we admire this piece at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous occasion in Florentine history. It reminds us of Italy's rich artistic heritage, particularly its connection to the powerful House of Medici dynasty. "Le Nozze degli Dei: Frontispiece, 1637" is more than just a print; it represents an era when art played an integral role in celebrating love, marriage, and cultural traditions.
