EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the poignant moment after the great deluge, as the ancient Greek mythological figures Deucalion and Pyrrha begin the arduous task of repopulating the Earth. The cataclysmic flood, sent by the gods as punishment for humanity's wickedness, had left the world desolate and bereft of life. Deucalion and Pyrrha, the only survivors, cling to each other amidst the ruins, their faces etched with a mixture of despair and determination. In their hands, they hold stones, the remnants of their mother, Gaia, whom they had been instructed to throw behind them. As they walk forward, the stones miraculously transform into men and women, thereby re-establishing the human race. This classical scene, steeped in history and mythology, is a testament to the indomitable human spirit and the power of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. The image, with its rich symbolism and timeless beauty, transports us back to a bygone era, inviting us to ponder the mysteries of the past and the enduring nature of human existence. The intricate details of the print, from the folds of the couple's robes to the textures of the stones, serve to bring the story to life, immersing us in the mythological world of Deucalion and Pyrrha. This powerful and evocative image is a must-have for any collection that seeks to explore the depths of human history and mythology.
