EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing ancient Greek relief titled "Orpheus, Eurydice and Hermes". The scene depicted is straight out of Greek mythology, capturing the essence of this timeless tale. Created in 1879 by ZU_09, this wood engraving beautifully reproduces an original marble relief from around 50 BCE. The composition portrays Orpheus, Eurydice, and Hermes in a moment filled with emotion and symbolism. Orpheus, the legendary musician and poet known for his enchanting melodies, stands at the center of attention. His lyre rests against his body as he gazes longingly towards his beloved wife Eurydice. Eurydice's delicate figure is seen behind him, her face turned away as if lost in thought or perhaps overcome by sadness. Meanwhile, Hermes - the messenger of gods - appears to be guiding them through their fateful journey. The intricate details captured in this photograph highlight the craftsmanship of ancient Greek artistry. From the flowing drapery to the expressive facial features carved into stone centuries ago; every element tells a story that has captivated audiences throughout history. Displayed prominently at the Louvre Museum in Paris since its discovery during excavations between 430-420 BCE. , this extraordinary piece continues to inspire awe and wonder today. This print allows us to bring a piece of ancient Greece into our modern lives while reminding us of humanity's enduring fascination with mythological tales.
