EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts the ancient Greek god Hephaistos, also known as Vulcan in Roman mythology, in a moment of shock and betrayal as he discovers his wife Aphrodite, the goddess of love, in bed with Mars, the god of war. The scene unfolds in a dimly lit bedroom, with the soft glow of candles casting an ethereal light on the figures. Aphrodite lies sensuously entwined with Mars, her robe disheveled, while the betrayed Hephaistos stands rigidly at the door, holding a metal net. The historical and classical context of this mythological tale dates back to ancient Greek literature, specifically in the works of the poet Archilochus and the playwright Euripides. According to the myth, Hephaistos, the god of fire and metalworking, became suspicious of his wife's infidelity and decided to put an end to her affair. He devised a clever plan to catch the guilty pair in the act, using his expertise in metalworking to create an invisible net. As Hephaistos enters the bedroom, he is met with a shocking sight. Instead of confronting the lovers directly, he chooses to remain hidden and waits for the opportune moment to throw the net over them. The image captures the tension and drama of the scene, with Hephaistos's intense expression and the contrast between the softness of Aphrodite and Mars's raw passion. This print, from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and complex world of ancient Greek mythology, where gods and goddesses, love and betrayal, and the power of metal intertwine in a captivating dance of emotion and intrigue.
