EDITORS COMMENTS
Spring, a captivating masterpiece by Pierre Alexandre Aveline, transports us to an idyllic countryside garden in 18th century France. This black and white etching with engraving captures the essence of the season with its delicate portrayal of cherubs and amorini frolicking amidst blooming flowers. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as he skillfully depicts the angelic figures adorned with garlands and trellises. The nakedness of these cherubim symbolizes their connection to nature, celebrating the purity and innocence of childhood. Aveline's composition effortlessly combines elements of nature and human presence, creating a harmonious balance between man-made structures and organic beauty. The lush plants surrounding the children further emphasize the abundance that comes with springtime. As we gaze upon this remarkable print at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are reminded of Charles Joseph Natoire's influence on Aveline's work. Natoire was renowned for his expertise in depicting mythological scenes involving putti or childlike figures. This artwork serves as a timeless reminder that spring brings forth renewal, growth, and joyous moments shared among both humans and nature alike. It invites us to appreciate the ephemeral beauty that surrounds us during this enchanting season.
