EDITORS COMMENTS
This mezzotint print, titled "Orpheus and Eurydice" beautifully captures the tragic love story of these mythological figures. Created by the talented artist George Frederic Watts in 1870-72, this piece measures 36x53.5 cm and is currently held in a private collection. In this haunting depiction, we witness Orpheus, the renowned poet and musician of Greek mythology, embracing his beloved Eurydice. The scene exudes an air of darkness and sorrow as they stand together amidst a somber backdrop. Orpheus tenderly holds his lyre while gazing into Eurydice's eyes with deep affection. The emotional intensity conveyed through their half-length embrace is palpable; it speaks volumes about their undying love for one another. Tragically, this poignant moment represents their final encounter before Eurydice's untimely death. Watts' masterful engraving technique brings forth every intricate detail of this classical tragedy. The composition evokes a sense of dramatic tension as Orpheus desperately tries to save his beloved from the clutches of death itself. "Orpheus and Eurydice" serves as a timeless reminder that even in the face of overwhelming loss, love can transcend boundaries and endure beyond life itself. This print stands as a testament to both the power of mythological storytelling and Watts' exceptional artistic skill in capturing its essence on paper.
