EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by John Flaxman, we are transported back to the mythical world of ancient Greece. The image depicts a scene from Homer's epic poem, the Iliad, where the Hours - goddesses who personify the passage of time - are taking control of Juno's majestic horses. Flaxman's intricate detailing brings to life this classical tale as we witness the divine intervention in mortal affairs. The graceful figures of the Hours gracefully guide and lead away Juno's chariot with its magnificent steeds. Their ethereal presence is accentuated by their flowing robes and serene expressions. This print was created as an illustration for Flaxman's Classical Outlines, a publication that aimed to bring Greek mythology and literature closer to contemporary audiences. It serves as a testament to Flaxman's skill in capturing both the essence of classical storytelling and his own artistic interpretation. The juxtaposition between ancient mythological themes and modern means of transportation adds an intriguing layer to this artwork. By incorporating elements such as cars into his depiction, Flaxman bridges past and present, inviting viewers to reflect on how timeless stories continue to resonate in our ever-evolving world. This enchanting print from Bridgeman Images invites us on a visual journey through time, reminding us that even centuries-old tales can still captivate our imagination today.
