EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Clytie into a Flower or Clizia Transformata in Eliotropia, Book IV" takes us back to the enchanting world of mythology. Created by Luigi Ademollo in 1832, this hand-coloured engraving brings to life a scene from Ovid's Metamorphoses. In this intricate illustration, we witness the transformation of Clytie into a beautiful flower. The delicate strokes and vibrant colors transport us to ancient Florence, where mythological tales were revered and celebrated. The image depicts Clytie's passionate love for Apollo leading her to betray Leucothoe to her father. As we gaze at the chariot pulled by majestic horses in the background, we are reminded of the power and influence of these mythical beings. Ademollo's attention to detail is evident as he captures every nuance of emotion on Clytie's face. We can almost feel her longing for Apollo radiating through the print.
