EDITORS COMMENTS
In this hauntingly captivating watercolor print titled "Diomedes Devoured by Horses". Gustave Moreau, a renowned French artist, transports us to a world of mythological tragedy. Created in 1866, the artwork measures 21.4 x 19.7 cm and showcases Moreau's mastery of both watercolor and graphite techniques. The scene depicted is from Greek mythology, specifically the story of Diomedes, a fierce warrior known for his bravery during the Trojan War. However, it is not his heroic deeds that take center stage here but rather his gruesome demise. As we gaze upon the image, we witness Diomedes being devoured by horses – an unsettling sight that evokes a sense of horror and despair. Moreau's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life: from the wild manes and flaring nostrils of the horses to Diomedes' anguished expression as he succumbs to their savage hunger. The contrasting colors used – vibrant reds against dark blues and blacks – intensify the dramatic atmosphere surrounding this tragic event. Through this artwork, Moreau explores themes such as mortality, fate, and human vulnerability in face of overwhelming forces beyond our control. His ability to evoke strong emotions through visual storytelling solidifies his reputation as one of France's most influential artists. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate Gustave Moreau's artistic brilliance up close while immersing ourselves in an ancient tale filled with both beauty and
