EDITORS COMMENTS
Orpheus, the legendary musician and poet from Greek mythology, is depicted in this exquisite black-and-white postcard image as he enchants Eurydice with the melody of his lyre. This scene is brought to life through the artistry of dedicated actors of yesteryears, who have breathed new life into this ancient tale for a series of postcards. The setting is reminiscent of a classical theater, with the actors dressed in authentic period costumes, transporting us back to the historical era of 1914. The stage is adorned with columns, evoking the grandeur of ancient Greece, while the actors' expressive faces and body language convey the depth of emotion in the story of Orpheus and Eurydice. Orpheus, played delightfully by an actor with a commanding presence and a captivating smile, strums his lyre with an intensity that holds Eurydice's gaze. She, portrayed by an equally talented actress, is transfixed by his music, her eyes filled with wonder and longing. The connection between the two is palpable, and the audience is drawn into their world, experiencing the magic of their love story. This postcard is not only a beautiful piece of art but also a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the human spirit. It invites us to reflect on the history of this myth and the countless ways it has been interpreted and performed throughout the centuries. Whether displayed as a collectible or shared with loved ones, this postcard is a treasure to be cherished and enjoyed for generations to come.
