EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating copper engraving from a 17th century English edition of Ovid's Metamorphoses transports us to the realm of ancient Greek mythology. In this mesmerizing artwork titled "Myrrha, transformed into a tree, gives birth to Adonis" we witness a profound and mystical transformation. At the center of the image stands Myrrha, once a mortal woman but now metamorphosed into an exquisite tree. Her branches gracefully extend towards the heavens while her roots firmly anchor her to the earth. Despite her arboreal form, she remains connected to her humanity as she miraculously gives birth to Adonis. Adonis, depicted as an enchanting baby boy cradled in his mother's wooden embrace, symbolizes new life and hope. This divine child is destined for greatness within Hellenic mythology. The artist skillfully captures both beauty and vulnerability in this scene. The intricate details of the engraving bring forth emotions that resonate with viewers across centuries. It is impossible not to marvel at Myrrha's sacrifice and strength as she becomes both mother and protector in her transformed state. This artwork serves as a testament to the enduring power of mythological tales and their ability to inspire awe and contemplation even today. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded of our connection with ancient civilizations and their rich cultural heritage that continues to shape our understanding of art, literature, and human existence itself.
