EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Narcissus Transformed into a Flower" takes us on a journey through the mythical world of Narcissus. Created by Bernard Picart in 1730, this print beautifully captures the essence of the ancient tale. In this image, we see Narcissus gazing at his own reflection in a tranquil pool. The landscape surrounding him is lush and vibrant, emphasizing the beauty that has captivated Narcissus's attention. His dog stands faithfully beside him, unaware of its master's self-obsession. The mythological figure of Cupid hovers above Narcissus with bow and arrow in hand. Love itself seems to be firing an arrow towards Narcissus's heart, symbolizing the power love holds over even the most vain individuals. Picart skillfully portrays both vanity and metamorphosis within this piece. As we know from Ovid's tales, Narcissus becomes so infatuated with his own reflection that he transforms into a flower bearing his name - narcissus. This engraving not only showcases Picart's artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of our human tendency to become consumed by our own image and desires. It explores themes such as love, obsession, and self-reflection while delving into ancient mythology and pagan beliefs. As we observe this intricate artwork from The Stapleton Collection, let us reflect upon our own actions and motivations. Are we too caught up in ourselves? Do we risk losing sight of what truly
