EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to ancient Greece as we witness the renowned Greek painter Zeuxis choosing a model for his iconic masterpiece, Helen of Troy. Painted by Victor Mottez in oil on canvas, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of classical art. The scene unfolds in a serene setting with a drinking well and a delicate curtain serving as the backdrop. Zeuxis, known for his attention to detail and realism, carefully evaluates several female candidates before making his selection. The women stand gracefully adorned in Grecian dresses while one brave soul stands nude, embodying the vulnerability and beauty that would eventually become synonymous with Helen herself. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the soft strumming of a lyre playing in the distance. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as Zeuxis contemplates which woman will best personify Helen's legendary allure. This painting transports us back to an era where choices were made not only based on physical attributes but also on capturing the essence of mythological figures. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, artists faced decisions when creating their masterpieces - choices that would forever shape our perception of history and beauty. With its rich historical context and exquisite execution by Mottez, "Zeuxis Choosing a Model for Helen" continues to captivate viewers today just as it did when it was first created.
