EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Profligate Behaviour of Chares" takes us back to ancient Greece, offering a glimpse into the scandalous life of Athenian General Chares. Created by Allan Stewart in 1915 as part of Hutchinson's History of the Nations, this print showcases Chares' notorious reputation for corruption and immorality. In this illustration, we find ourselves in the opulent court of ancient Greece. The scene is filled with music and merriment as male courtiers surround an enthroned figure believed to be Chares himself. Dressed in elaborate attire, he exudes power and indulgence while engaging in a provocative dance. The artist masterfully captures the essence of Greek culture through intricate engravings that bring every detail to life. From the graceful movements of the dancers to the ornate throne on which Chares sits, each element contributes to our understanding of his profligate behavior. Through this artwork, we are reminded that even great leaders can succumb to temptation and moral decay. It serves as a cautionary tale about unchecked power and its potential consequences. As we gaze upon this lithograph from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back in time—immersing ourselves in an era where corruption thrived alongside artistic expression. It invites us to reflect on our own society's struggles with morality and reminds us that history often repeats itself if lessons go unheeded.
