Combat of Tritons 1651 - 1656

Editor: This is Salvator Rosa's "Combat of Tritons," an etching teeming with wild energy. The scene is a chaotic brawl; what do you make of all this swirling fury? Curator: It's a fantastic display of Rosa’s dramatic flair, wouldn't you agree? Think of the Baroque love for drama, amped up! These aren't your peaceful, decorative sea creatures; these are raw, untamed forces of nature locked in a primal struggle. One can almost hear the roaring sea! Editor: Yes, I see it now. It's not just a fight, it's a force of nature unleashed. Thanks! Curator: My pleasure. Rosa invites us to dive headfirst into the tempestuous depths of the imagination. Don't be afraid to get wet!
