EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate decoration on a Greek amphora, transporting us back to ancient times. Created in 1858 by P. Bineteau, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of Greek mythology. The focal point of the print is Poseidon, the mighty god of the sea and earthquakes, accompanied by his loyal companions - dolphins. The artist skillfully depicts Poseidon's commanding presence as he stands tall with his trident in hand. The dolphins gracefully swim alongside him, symbolizing their close connection to this powerful deity. The use of watercolor and bodycolor over lithography adds depth and vibrancy to the image, enhancing its visual appeal. The black and red figures painted on the amphora further emphasize its significance as a vessel for storytelling through art. Greek mythology enthusiasts will appreciate this piece for its depiction of one of their favorite gods and his association with these intelligent marine creatures. It serves as a reminder of how deeply intertwined ancient civilizations were with nature and their belief systems. Now housed at the Ashmolean Museum, this print allows us to admire an artifact that would have once adorned an ancient Greek household or temple. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers today, offering a glimpse into a rich cultural heritage that has influenced countless generations since then.
