Bonasone, a skilled printmaker active in Bologna, demonstrates his mastery of the burin through precise line work and structured composition. The central narrative shows Juno recoiling from the three Furies, identified by inscriptions as Alecto, Megaera, and Tisiphone. Their serpentine hair and aggressive gestures contrast with the more composed, classical figure of the goddess, who is accompanied by her attribute, the peacock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work is framed within an architectural structure, a common device in sixteenth-century printmaking to provide spatial order. Above the main scene, two putti support a circular element, adding a decorative layer to the composition. Below the figures, an Italian verse explains the subject matter, linking the visual imagery to literary traditions of the period. The engraving reflects the interest in classical mythology and humanistic themes that defined the Italian Renaissance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonasone was known for his ability to translate the works of other masters into print, yet he also produced original designs. This piece displays his technical proficiency in creating texture and volume through varied hatching patterns. The contrast between the dark, chaotic energy of the underworld figures and the light-filled presence of Juno creates a clear visual tension. The print serves as an example of the sophisticated graphic arts produced in Italy during the mid-sixteenth century, where classical learning and technical skill converged. Collectors of Renaissance prints will appreciate the clarity of the lines and the adherence to the stylistic conventions of the Bolognese school.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/battle-of-the-sea-gods-right-half-of-a-frieze-andrea-mantegna\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eBattle of the Sea Gods: Right Half of a Frieze - Andrea Mantegna — Andrea Mantegna\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-school-of-athens-giorgio-ghisi\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe School of Athens - Giorgio Ghisi — Giorgio Ghisi\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Giulio Bonasone","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58581007106383,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58581017231695,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58581017264463,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58581017297231,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58581017329999,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58581017362767,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58581017395535,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58581017428303,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58581017461071,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58581017493839,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58581017526607,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58581017559375,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Juno-Frightened-by-the-Furies_Poster_CompositorV1_1787843332826.jpg?v=1787843528","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/juno-frightened-by-the-furies-giulio-bonasone","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
