EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Heng O Flies to the Moon, 1922" depicts a scene from the ancient Chinese legend of Chang e or Heng O. The creator of this mesmerizing artwork remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to its allure. In this tale, a young wife attains immortality and embarks on a celestial journey to the moon while her husband watches in awe as she departs. The image showcases a picturesque landscape with rolling hills and billowing clouds that seem to mirror the emotions evoked by this mythical event. A couple stands at the forefront, symbolizing love and devotion amidst their separation caused by divine intervention. The vibrant red hues adorning their traditional costumes emphasize both their cultural heritage and religious significance. As the woman gracefully takes flight, her robes flow elegantly behind her, creating a sense of movement and freedom. This illustration not only captures elements of Chinese mythology but also reflects themes such as marriage, spirituality, literature, and immortality prevalent in Chinese culture during the Qing Dynasty. It serves as a visual representation of these concepts passed down through generations. Preserved within this print is an enchanting moment frozen in time - one person's transcendence into legend captured for all eternity. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers even after almost a century since its creation.
