EDITORS COMMENTS
Orpheus, the legendary ancient Greek musician and poet, is depicted in this image as he bravely attempts to rescue his beloved wife Eurydice from the clutches of the Underworld. According to the myth, Eurydice had died after being bitten by a venomous snake, and Orpheus, distraught with grief, journeyed to the underworld to plead with Hades, the ruler of the dead, for her return. Hades, moved by Orpheus's music and poetry, granted him the condition that he must not look back at Eurydice as they ascended from the underworld, or she would be lost to him forever. As they ascend, Orpheus's anxiety grows, and at the last minute, he turns to check on Eurydice, breaking the sacred condition. In this poignant moment, captured in the photograph, Orpheus's expression is one of despair and regret as he realizes his tragic mistake. The historical and classical significance of this myth has been passed down through the ages, and the story of Orpheus and Eurydice continues to captivate audiences with its themes of love, loss, and the power of music. This evocative image, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history and enduring allure of this ancient myth. The intricate details of the artwork, from the flowing robes of Orpheus and Eurydice to the haunting backdrop of the underworld, transport the viewer to another time and place. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a reminder of the timeless stories that have shaped human history and continue to inspire us today.
