EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Greek art - the Scylla bronze plaque. Created by an unknown French School artist in the 19th century, this engraving depicts one of the most intriguing characters from Greek mythology. Scylla, a monstrous and fantastic creature, is beautifully captured in bronze, showcasing the skill and craftsmanship of ancient Greek sculptors. The plaque was featured in the L'Art Ancien à l'Exposition de 1878 (Ancient Art at the Exhibition of 1878) publication, which documented various artworks displayed during that time. This particular piece stood out among others due to its historical significance and mythical subject matter. Scylla's presence in Greek legend is closely tied to Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey. Known for her fearsome appearance with multiple heads and tentacle-like appendages emerging from her waist down, she posed great danger to sailors passing through her territory. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic beauty but also the rich cultural heritage associated with ancient Greece. It serves as a reminder of how mythology continues to inspire artists across different eras and mediums. Displayed proudly in private collections today, this bronze plaque stands as a testament to both human imagination and artistic excellence throughout history. Its inclusion in exhibitions like Exposition Universelle 1878 further solidifies its importance within the world of fine art.
