EDITORS COMMENTS
Narcissus Contemplating His Reflection in the Pool" is a captivating image from the annals of classical mythology, as depicted in this elegant print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The Greek myth of Narcissus and Echo is a poignant tale of love, vanity, and self-absorption. In this print, the figure of Narcissus is shown in a moment of profound contemplation, as he gazes into the still waters of a pool. The serene reflection of his face is mirrored perfectly, creating a mesmerizing effect that draws the viewer in. Narcissus, a handsome and proud youth, was famed for his beauty, which drew the admiration of many suitors. However, he was fated never to return their affections, for he was in love with his own reflection. The pool from which Narcissus drinks is said to have been created by the gods as a punishment for his arrogance. The nymphs, enraged by his rejection of their advances, called upon Nemesis to avenge them. Nemesis, the goddess of revenge, granted their wish, and Narcissus was cursed to fall in love with the image of his own face, unable to tear himself away. As Narcissus leans forward to touch the water, his reflection seems to beckon him closer, drawing him into a world of self-obsession. The print captures the essence of this tragic tale, with its exquisite attention to detail and evocative use of light and shadow. The classical setting, with its lush greenery and tranquil waters, adds to the sense of timeless beauty and melancholy that pervades the image. This print is a testament to the enduring power of classical mythology to captivate and inspire, and serves as a reminder of the dangers of vanity and self-absorption. It is a beautiful addition to any collection of mythological art or historical prints, and a thought-provoking reminder of the stories that have shaped our cultural heritage.
