EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image depicts the legendary tale of Deucalion and Pyrrha, survivors of the great flood sent by Zeus to cleanse the sinful mankind from the earth. According to Greek mythology, the wrath of Zeus was ignited by the wickedness and depravity that had spread among humanity. In response, the god unleashed a torrential rain that continued for forty days and forty nights, flooding the land and drowning all living beings. Deucalion and Pyrrha, however, were spared from the devastating deluge. They were instructed by the god Helios to build an ark and provision it with food and animals. As the floodwaters rose, they climbed aboard and rode the waves until they came to rest on the summit of Mount Parnassus. This print, from the vast archive of Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the essence of this ancient story. The image of Deucalion and Pyrrha, huddled together on the ark, gazes out at the tumultuous sea that surrounds them. The dark, stormy sky above reflects the chaos and destruction below, while the mountain peak in the distance offers a glimmer of hope and salvation. The myth of Deucalion and Pyrrha is a powerful reminder of the destructive consequences of human sinfulness and the transformative power of divine intervention. It has been retold through the ages, inspiring artists, writers, and thinkers to explore the depths of human nature and the mysteries of the divine. This print, with its haunting beauty and timeless themes, invites us to reflect on the enduring power of myth and the stories that shape our collective imagination.
