EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Erichthonius with Dragons Feet or Erittonio data in Guardia alle Figlie de Cecrope" transports us to the mythical world of ancient Greece. Created by Luigi Ademollo in 1832, this artwork is a visual interpretation from Ovid's Metamorphoses. In this scene, we witness Erichthonius, a legendary figure known for his unique dragon-like feet. He stands guard over the daughters of Cecrops, the first king of Athens. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring life to this classical mythological tale. The composition captures our attention as Erichthonius appears majestic and powerful while surrounded by young children. His presence exudes protection and strength as he watches over these innocent souls. The inclusion of a basket suggests that he may be nurturing them or perhaps symbolizes their connection to him. Ademollo's skillful craftsmanship is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. From the delicate lines depicting facial expressions to the meticulous shading that adds depth and dimensionality, each element contributes to the overall beauty of this piece. As we contemplate this artwork from Fine Art Finder's Stapleton Collection, we are reminded of the enduring power and fascination surrounding Greek mythology. It serves as a testament to humanity's eternal quest for understanding our origins and exploring fantastical realms beyond our own reality.
