EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Helen, the legendary beauty from Greek mythology, as she hides in the Temple of Vesta. Taken from page 50 of Virgil's Aeneid, this artwork by William Morris showcases his mastery in both art and literature. The delicate watercolor on vellum brings to life a scene filled with epic grandeur and intricate details. The image is steeped in symbolism and references to various artistic movements. The neo-gothic style adds an ornate touch to the composition, while elements of Arts and Crafts movement can be observed through its decorative patterns. The pre-Raphaelite influence is evident in the meticulous attention given to every aspect of the illustration. Helen's fear is palpable as she seeks sanctuary within the temple walls, surrounded by floral motifs that enhance her vulnerability. The calligraphy intertwines seamlessly with the gothic revival aesthetic, emphasizing the classical nature of Virgil's poetry. As we gaze upon this Victorian masterpiece, we are transported back to ancient times where mythological tales unfold before our eyes. This illuminated manuscript serves not only as a visual delight but also as a testament to Morris' dedication to preserving and reviving traditional art forms. In this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we witness Helen's plight amidst a backdrop rich in history and artistic expression. It reminds us that even within chaos and adversity, beauty can still be found – hidden away like Helen herself within these pages of Virgil's timeless epic poem.
