EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of both love and jealousy in the mythological tale of Acis and Galatee. Painted by Francois Perrier in the 17th century, this artwork depicts the nymph Galatee and her beloved Acis being observed by the Cyclops Polypheme. The Cyclops, consumed with envy over their idyllic love, gazes upon them with a mix of sadness and anger. The painting is based on Ovid's "Metamorphoses" a renowned work of literature that explores various myths and transformations. Perrier skillfully brings this story to life through his use of color, detail, and composition. In this scene, we witness the contrast between happiness and sorrow as Acis and Galatee share an intimate moment while unaware of Polypheme's presence. The lush surroundings evoke a sense of romance, further emphasizing their deep connection. The inclusion of Polypheme adds an element of danger to the narrative. As a monstrous cyclops driven by jealousy, he symbolizes the destructive power that can arise from unrequited love. Overall, this artwork beautifully captures themes such as love, jealousy, mythology, and human emotions. It serves as a testament to Perrier's talent as well as his ability to bring ancient stories into contemporary consciousness.
