EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Theseus Recognised or Teseo Riconosciuto da Suo Padre Egeo, Book VII" transports us back to the enchanting world of Greek mythology. Created by Luigi Ademollo in 1832, this hand-coloured engraving is a visual representation of a pivotal moment from Ovid's Metamorphoses. In the scene depicted, we witness Theseus, one of the chosen victims destined for sacrifice to the fearsome minotaur. However, Princess Ariadne becomes infatuated with him and aids him in his quest to conquer the monstrous creature. Yet, fate takes an unexpected turn as Theseus abandons Ariadne at Athenas' command. The illustration captures a climactic banquet where recognition plays a crucial role. Here we see Theseus being acknowledged by his father Egeo amidst an atmosphere charged with tension and emotion. The artist skillfully portrays these complex emotions through intricate details and vibrant colors. Luigi Ademollo masterfully brings this classical mythological tale to life, showcasing his talent as both an illustrator and storyteller. This print serves as a testament to Ademollo's ability to capture not only physical beauty but also the psychological depth that lies within these ancient narratives.
