EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print "Callisto is turned into a Bear or Calisto Scacciata da Diana" by Luigi Ademollo takes us on a journey through ancient mythology. This hand-coloured engraving, created in Florence in 1832, beautifully illustrates a scene from Ovid's Metamorphoses. In the image, we witness the tragic transformation of Callisto, a nymph who was once favored by the goddess Diana. As punishment for her forbidden affair with Jupiter, Diana banishes Callisto and turns her into a bear. The illustration captures this pivotal moment as Callisto stands on the riverbank, her human form slowly fading away while she begins to take on the shape of a majestic bear. Ademollo's attention to detail brings this mythological tale to life. The lush surroundings and serene river create an enchanting backdrop for this dramatic metamorphosis. We can almost feel the tension and sorrow emanating from Callisto as she realizes her fate. This print not only showcases Ademollo's artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of the enduring power of classical mythology. It invites us to delve into ancient stories that continue to captivate our imaginations today. Through his skillful interpretation of Ovid's work, Ademollo transports us back in time and allows us to witness firsthand one of its most poignant moments - when love leads to tragedy and divine intervention shapes destinies.
