EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) depicts the legendary tale of Iphigenia, daughter of Agamemnon, king of Mycenae. The image captures the pivotal moment when Iphigenia is sacrificed by her own father at Aulis in order to secure favorable winds for the fleet's journey against Troy. However, according to ancient Greek legend, Artemis (Diana) intervenes and rescues Iphigenia just in time. The photograph transports us back to a time of epic wars and mythical heroes. It beautifully portrays the anguish on Iphigenia's face as she faces an unimaginable fate at the hands of her father. Yet, it also hints at hope with Artemis' presence hovering above her. Iphigenia's story has been immortalized by Euripedes who used it as plot material for two gripping dramas. This image serves as a visual reminder of the power and tragedy that often intertwine in ancient Greek theater. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Iphigenia's sacrifice but also her subsequent transformation into a priestess in Tauris. Her journey takes us from one end of Greece to another - from Aulis to Troy and finally to Tauris - showcasing both physical and emotional trials faced by this remarkable young woman. In this single frame captured by UIG, we witness a snapshot frozen in time; an enduring testament to the resilience and strength displayed by Iphigenia throughout
