EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense moment of Perseus and Medusa's encounter, taken from the Game of Mythology (Jeu de la Mythologie) series by Stefano della Bella in 1644. The 17th-century etching showcases the artist's mastery in depicting this iconic Greek mythological scene. In this image, we witness Perseus, a heroic figure from ancient mythology, wielding his blade with determination as he prepares to behead Medusa. The tension is palpable as Medusa, a fearsome Gorgon with snakes for hair, gazes back at him with her piercing eyes. This depiction perfectly encapsulates the concept of heroism and the eternal struggle between good and evil. Stefano della Bella's attention to detail brings these mythical creatures to life on paper. The intricate lines and shading highlight every muscle on Perseus' body while capturing the serpentine nature of Medusa's hair.
