EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Elegies a Mytilene" is an exquisite illustration from the renowned collection of Les Chansons de Bilitis by Pierre Louys, published in 1922. Created using the pochoir printing technique, this artwork showcases the remarkable talent of Georges Barbier (1882-1932), an esteemed illustrator of his time. The image transports us to ancient Greece, where two female lovers are depicted in a sensual and intimate embrace. The reclining figures exude elegance and grace as they bask in their nakedness, evoking a sense of timeless beauty. This art deco masterpiece perfectly captures the essence of love and desire between women. Barbier's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke, showcasing his mastery over form and composition. The delicate portrayal of nipples adds an element of eroticism without compromising the overall aesthetic appeal. As we delve into this piece, it becomes apparent that it celebrates not only same-sex relationships but also pays homage to classical Greek culture. Through its exploration of homosexuality within antiquity, this artwork challenges societal norms while highlighting the rich history surrounding LGBTQ+ identities. With its stunning depiction of femininity and sensuality, this print stands as a testament to Barbier's artistic brilliance within the art deco movement. It serves as a reminder that love knows no boundaries or restrictions – transcending time and cultural barriers. This exceptional work exemplifies why Barbier remains one of France's most celebrated illustrators, leaving an indelible mark
