EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting world of Greek mythology. Titled "Medor and Angelica or Jason and Medea" this artwork was created by the renowned Italian artist Titian in the 16th century. The print, featured in the book "Titian Paintings and Drawings" published by Phaidon Press in Vienna, captures a moment of intense emotion between two mythical figures. In this scene, we witness a naked couple lying amidst a lush forest landscape. A sense of vulnerability emanates from their exposed bodies as they are surrounded by towering trees and intricate plant life. At first glance, one might mistake them for Medor and Angelica or perhaps even Jason and Medea, characters deeply rooted in ancient tales. The woman's gaze is filled with longing while her male counterpart appears contemplative yet determined. As our eyes wander through the composition, we notice a mythical creature lurking nearby – a dragon symbolizing danger or temptation. This high Renaissance masterpiece beautifully combines elements of nature with human emotions, showcasing Titian's exceptional skill as an artist. The monochrome palette adds depth to the image while emphasizing its timeless quality. Now housed within the Musee Bonnat collection in Bayonne, France, this print allows us to appreciate both rural life during the 16th century and Titian's contribution to art history. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these mythological stories continue to captivate our imagination.
