EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An Allegorical Figure: Non sine labore, 1628" by Cherubino Alberti takes us back to the Baroque era of the 17th century. The image showcases an angelic figure, adorned with wings and surrounded by cherubs, symbolizing a profound allegory. The artist's meticulous etching technique brings out every intricate detail of this masterpiece. The nakedness of the figures adds vulnerability and purity to the composition while emphasizing their timeless beauty. In their hands, they hold a palm frond, representing victory or success achieved through labor. The concept behind this artwork is deeply rooted in Latin philosophy as it translates to "Not without labor". It serves as a reminder that achievements are not easily attained; hard work and dedication are essential ingredients for success. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this Italian heritage art piece invites viewers to contemplate the significance of labor in our lives. It transcends time and place, resonating with people from all walks of life who strive for excellence. As we gaze upon this striking print, we are transported into a world where cherubs personify innocence and divine intervention. Cherubino Alberti's skillful execution captures both the ethereal nature of these winged beings and their connection to humanity. "An Allegorical Figure: Non sine labore" stands as a testament to Alberti's artistic prowess during his time and continues to inspire awe among art enthusiasts today.
