EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph depicts a chilling scene from Greek mythology, showcasing the punishment inflicted upon Prometheus for his audacious act of stealing fire from the gods and gifting it to humanity. The image portrays Prometheus helplessly chained to a desolate rock, while an imposing eagle viciously devours his liver. The artist, Artus Scheiner, skillfully captures the torment and suffering endured by this Titan. The composition is rich in detail, with towering mountains serving as a backdrop to emphasize Prometheus' isolation and despair. Zeus, the ruler of Olympus and enforcer of justice, stands as an unseen presence behind this gruesome spectacle. This artwork originates from Frantisek Ruth's book "Pohadky Staroveke" (Ancient Myths), published in Prague around 1920. It serves as a haunting reminder of the consequences that befall those who dare challenge divine authority. The vivid colors employed in this lithograph enhance its dramatic impact and draw viewers into the ancient world where legends come alive. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of both the powerlessness of mortals before deities and their enduring quest for knowledge and progress. Bridgeman Images presents us with another remarkable piece that invites contemplation on themes such as crime, punishment, sacrifice, and resilience through its portrayal of one man's eternal ordeal at the hands - or rather talons - of an insatiable eagle.
