EDITORS COMMENTS
Amphiaraus, the enigmatic Greek seer of Thebes, is depicted in this print, holding a sheep's fleece and gazing intently into the flames of a sacred fire. Known for his extraordinary ability to interpret dreams and divine the will of the gods through oracles, Amphiaraus was a pivotal figure in ancient Greek mythology. The fleece in Amphiaraus' hands is a powerful symbol of his connection to the legendary Golden Fleece expedition. According to myth, the fleece was dipped in the blood of a sacred ram and brought to Colchis by the hero Jason. Amphiaraus played a crucial role in this epic journey, using his divine gifts to guide Jason and his Argonauts through perilous waters and treacherous lands. Amphiaraus' paranormal abilities were not limited to interpreting dreams and oracles. He was also said to have the power to communicate with the dead, making him a sought-after advisor for kings and rulers. His wisdom and insight were believed to bring fortune and prosperity to those who sought his counsel. Despite his many gifts, Amphiaraus' life was not without tragedy. He was ultimately driven mad by the jealousy of his wife Eriphyle, who was manipulated by Hera to kill him. Amphiaraus' tragic end only added to his mystique and enduring legacy as a seer and interpreter of the divine will. This evocative print captures the enigmatic and otherworldly qualities of Amphiaraus, transporting us back to a time when the gods were believed to speak through oracles and dreams, and the power of a seer's words could change the course of history.
