…the renaissance of the renaissance
Images of goddesses are a classic art motif that has been known in art history since the ancient times of Greece, Egypt and Babylon. I have depicted goddesses the way it has traditionally been done, with their classical attributes and symbolic animals included in the image. They are a continuation of humanity’s prehistoric art history. A four thousand year old tradition of goddess painting continues here.
In the Renaissance, Botticelli took up the classic art motifs of antiquity and recreated them. In the Baroque period, Rubens, Titian and Rembrandt also repainted goddesses and thus illustrated Greek mythology. With my project to paint goddesses, I join this tradition of the Renaissance and Baroque and also quote this painting style.
21st century painting.
The depiction is the oldest tradition in European art and dates back to ancient Greece. Goddesses were also depicted in Summer and Egypt.
In the tradition of the old masters of the Renaissance and Baroque, Juliane Arnold paints new images of goddesses.
Art history always remembers the stories about Artemis and her hunt and her love for the animals of the wild, about Athene, the most important goddesses of Greece. She repeatedly depicts their lives and thus keeps Europe’s world cultural heritage in her memory.
The goddess Ishtar became part of our world view. Rediscovered as Lady Babylon by the magicians of England, she is an ancient goddess of humanity, a primordial mother of the Sumerian people and a symbol of femininity. She is at the same time a goddess of love and war; in her honor, Babylon Ishtar Gates were built, which bear the name: Ishtar, who defeats her enemies. Ishtar and Inanna are one and the same numerical Babylonian goddess and are represented in the numerical tradition as the great tamer of lions. This gives the divine feminine principle the power and honor of being the supreme goddess of her land, to whom wonderful ancient songs have been dedicated.
