EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hera Hiding during the Battle of the Gods and Giants" transports us to a mythical world where gods clash with giants. In this scene, Hera, the queen of Olympus, seeks refuge from the chaos by concealing herself beneath a massive rock and an elegant parasol on the tranquil waterfront. A young woman embodies Hera's essence as she lies hidden, her eyes filled with determination and resilience. The artist skillfully captures her vulnerability amidst the tumultuous battle raging around her. Perched atop the rock are two majestic peacocks, their vibrant feathers symbolizing beauty and immortality. On the left side of the composition stands a loyal dog, faithfully guarding his mistress in this moment of peril. This faithful companion represents loyalty and protection amidst adversity. The painting is reminiscent of Carel Fabritius' original version displayed in Moscow but offers its own unique interpretation. The use of oil paint on canvas brings depth and richness to every brushstroke, enhancing our immersion into this epic tale. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork from Liszt Collection, we are reminded that even in times of great turmoil, there is always solace to be found - whether it be through nature's embrace or within ourselves.
