EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Roman fresco from the ancient city of Pompeii, depicting the mythological tale of Europa and the bull. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring this artifact to life, offering a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of Roman civilization. In this scene, we see Europa, a beautiful female figure, standing in awe as she touches the majestic bull before her. Little does she know that this bull is actually Zeus, the king of gods himself, who has taken on this form to seduce her. The delicate brushstrokes capture every emotion on Europa's face as she grapples with both fear and curiosity. The semi-dressed goddess stands out against a backdrop of other people in various states of undress – an intriguing reflection of ancient Roman society's complex attitudes towards nudity and sexuality. This fresco not only serves as an exquisite piece of art but also offers insights into religious beliefs and cultural practices prevalent during that time. Preserved through centuries beneath volcanic ash until its rediscovery in Pompeii, this artifact now finds itself immortalized in print form for all to admire. Its presence evokes contemplation about human fascination with mythology and our eternal quest for understanding our place within the cosmos. This print by CM Dixon transports us back to ancient Italy while reminding us how art can transcend time and space to connect us with civilizations long gone.
