EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Bacchus and Ariadne" we are transported to the mythical island of Naxos, where a tale of love, betrayal, and solace unfolds. Created by Arnold Houbraken in the early 18th century, this anonymous print beautifully captures the essence of this ancient story. At the center of the composition stands Ariadne, her grief palpable as she mourns being abandoned by Theseus on this desolate island. Her delicate figure is draped in flowing garments that billow around her like waves crashing against the shore. Above her head hangs a canopy symbolizing her sorrow and isolation. But amidst Ariadne's despair emerges Bacchus, god of wine and revelry. With compassion in his eyes, he offers solace to the grieving maiden. In one hand he holds a glass filled with wine – perhaps an elixir to numb her pain – while his other arm wraps protectively around her shoulders. This print showcases not only Houbraken's artistic skill but also serves as an allegory for human emotions and experiences. It reminds us that even in our darkest moments, there can be unexpected sources of comfort and support. Quint Lox has expertly curated this piece from Liszt Collection, allowing us to delve into Greek mythology through artistry that transcends time. Let yourself be captivated by "Bacchus and Ariadne" as it invites you to reflect on themes of abandonment, resilience, and finding
