EDITORS COMMENTS

Step into a world where imagination runs wild and fantastic creatures come to life. From the captivating painting of "The Temptation of Saint Anthony" to the intricate grottesche decoration at Radnor House, Middlesex, this collection transports you to a realm filled with mythical beings. In the engraving of "The Abduction of Amymone by the Sea Monster, " we witness a mesmerizing encounter between a brave heroine and an awe-inspiring creature from the depths. Meanwhile, "Perseus and Andromeda" showcases an epic battle against a fearsome sea monster, as love triumphs over adversity. Saint George takes center stage in two enchanting engravings - one depicting his valiant fight against the death dragon and another showcasing his legendary victory over the mighty dragon itself. These tales remind us that courage can conquer even the most formidable adversaries. "The Dream of The Doctor" invites us into a surreal dreamscape where bizarre creatures roam freely, blurring lines between reality and fantasy. Similarly, in "Preparations for The Banquet of The Gods for The Wedding of Cupid and Psyche, " we are immersed in an extravagant fresco teeming with fantastical beings celebrating love's union. Goya's haunting etching & aquatint piece titled "El Sueno De La Razon Produce Monstruos (The Dream of Reason Produces Monsters)" serves as a reminder that when reason falters, our minds can conjure up both beauty and monstrosity alike. A classical landscape adorned with sphinxes transports us back in time to ancient civilizations where mythological creatures were revered as symbols of power and wisdom. Finally, another rendition of "The Temptation Of Saint Anthony" on wood captivates us with its rich colors and intricate details. These artworks remind us that within our own imaginations lies an entire universe brimming with extraordinary creatures waiting to be discovered.
