EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing scene from the tragic love story of Pyramus and Thisbe. Created by an anonymous French artist in the 19th century, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of their ill-fated romance. Pyramus and Thisbe, two young lovers separated by a wall that divided their homes, yearned for each other with an intensity that knew no bounds. In this poignant image, we witness their despair as they stand on either side of the barrier, reaching out to touch one another through a small crack. Their faces are filled with longing and sorrow, reflecting the depth of their unfulfilled love. The tree under which they meet serves as both witness and accomplice to their forbidden affair. It symbolizes not only their secret rendezvous spot but also becomes a silent observer to the tragedy that unfolds later in the story. Their desperate desire to be together ultimately leads them down a path of heartbreak and demise. The poetic nature of Ovid's Metamorphoses is brought to life through this evocative depiction, reminding us of the power love holds over our lives. As we gaze upon this haunting image, we are reminded of how even in death these star-crossed lovers remain eternally bound together. Their tale serves as a timeless reminder that true love can conquer all obstacles but sometimes comes at great cost – leaving behind nothing but echoes of what could have been.
