EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the iconic moment of Romulus and Remus being found by the she-wolf, a scene steeped in history, mythology, and legend. The image depicts the abandoned twin babies nestled under a tree by the riverbank, with the protective she-wolf standing guard over them.
The story of Romulus and Remus is one of the founding myths of Rome, symbolizing resilience, survival against all odds, and ultimately triumph. According to legend, these twins were descendants of royalty who were left to die but miraculously saved by a she-wolf who nursed them back to health.
The artist Hugh Chesterman masterfully brings this ancient tale to life through his detailed depiction of the vulnerable infants contrasted with the powerful presence of their animal protector. The composition evokes a sense of mystery and wonder as we witness this pivotal moment that would shape the destiny of Rome.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era where myth intertwined with reality, where heroes were born from humble beginnings. It serves as a reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is always hope for redemption and greatness.
