Italianate landscapes and ancient caves · Utrecht, circa 1620 -1658
Bacchus and nymphs in a landscape brings together the ancient world, the rock cave and the Italianate light specific to Abraham van Cuylenborch.
Abraham van Cuylenborch was born in Utrecht around 1620 and worked there until his death in 1658. Received into the painters' guild in 1639, he is associated with the Italianate tradition of Cornelis van Poelenburgh. He specializes in cave landscapes, often enriched with ancient ruins, bathers, nymphs and mythological stories. Bacchus and nymphs in a landscape bring together these characteristic elements. The rock forms a monumental framework around the figures, while the opening towards the distance lets in a clearer light. Bacchus and nymphs in a landscape bring together these characteristic elements. The rock forms a monumental framework around the figures, while the opening towards the distance lets in a clearer light. Bacchus and the nymphs inhabit the place without interrupting contemplation: their bodies, their gestures and their fabrics give a scale human decor. The space thus oscillates between real nature, memory of Antiquity and mythological theater. The "Abraham van Cuylenborch" selection notably compares Bacchus and nymphs in a landscape - Van Cuylenborch. His reading favors details.
At Van Cuylenborch, the cave is not a simple setting: it becomes a natural architecture where myth can appear.
