Close Dismayed Folklore Good Idea Lures Sees Siren Sirens Song 1921
EDITORS COMMENTS
In the enchanting world of ancient folklore, the Siren's song was said to lure sailors to their doom with its irresistible melody. This 1921 print, titled "Siren Dismayed," depicts a moment of uncertainty for one such mythical creature. With a wave of her hand, she calls forth her alluring tune, drawing a man closer to the treacherous rocks where she dwells. Yet as he approaches, the Siren's expression reveals a hint of doubt and dismay. The man, entranced by her song, is oblivious to the danger that lies ahead. His gaze is fixed on the Siren, her beauty and allure holding him in a trance. The Siren, however, seems to have second thoughts about her actions. Her once confident and seductive expression has given way to a look of concern and regret. The print, created in 1921, captures the timeless tale of the Siren and her enchantment. The use of soft colors and delicate brushstrokes adds to the dreamlike quality of the image, transporting us to a world where myth and reality blur. The Siren's story is one of temptation and consequence, and this print beautifully encapsulates the moment of indecision that lies at the heart of the legend.
