EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting painting "Circe" by Barker, Wright. Created in 1889, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 138x188 cm and is housed in the Bradford Art Galleries and Museums in West Yorkshire, UK. The image showcases a mesmerizing scene from Greek mythology as Circe, the goddess of magic, stands amidst a backdrop of classical architecture. Intriguing elements fill the composition; a tiger skin rug lies beneath her feet while lions and wolves surround her. Circe's flowing gown matches the vibrant poppies that bloom at her side, adding an ethereal touch to this mystical tableau. With delicate steps leading up to her elevated position, she exudes power and grace. Barker skillfully portrays Circe's transformative abilities through his attention to detail. Her sorceress powers are evident as she holds a wand adorned with flowers while animals around her take on human-like forms. This fusion of animalistic and human characteristics creates an otherworldly atmosphere within the painting. The artist's use of color adds depth and richness to every element depicted - from the vivid reds of poppies to the earthy tones of wildlife fur. Through this stunning visual representation, we are transported into ancient Greek mythology where gods and goddesses reigned supreme. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of our fascination with mythological tales that continue to captivate us even today.
