EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the legendary Greek couple, Cadmus, the founding king of Thebes, and his wife Hermione, in the midst of a transformative moment in their mythological history. The image captures the poignant moment when the couple, having been cursed by the goddess Agave, are metamorphosed into serpents. Cadmus, a brave warrior and the legendary founder of Thebes, was renowned for his heroic exploits. According to myth, he was instructed by the goddess Athena to sow the dragon's teeth, which resulted in the birth of a formidable army of armed men. With their help, Cadmus was able to establish Thebes as a powerful city-state. However, Cadmus' happiness was short-lived. He fell in love with Harmonia, the daughter of Ares and Aphrodite, who was already married to Cadmus' nephew, Pollux. The jealous Harmonia sought revenge and sought the help of Agave, the mother of Semele, who was also Cadmus' former lover. Agave, filled with rage, cursed Cadmus and Hermione, transforming them into serpents. The image portrays Cadmus and Hermione in their serpentine form, entwined around each other, their human features now replaced by the scales and eyes of serpents. Despite their transformation, their love for each other remains unchanged, as evidenced by their tender embrace. The print, with its intricate details and rich colors, offers a hauntingly beautiful representation of this tragic moment in Greek mythology. This print is a testament to the enduring power of mythology, which continues to captivate and inspire us with its timeless stories of love, power, and transformation.
