EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Andromeda, ca 1939-1941" takes us back to the enchanting world of Greek mythology. The image, part of a private collection, beautifully captures the essence of Andromeda, a legendary figure known for her beauty and vulnerability. In this portrait, we see a nude woman delicately portrayed in pastel on paper. The artist behind this masterpiece is Ker Xavier Roussel (1867-1944), an influential member of the Nabis movement in France. Through his skillful brushwork and attention to detail, Roussel brings forth the poetic nature of Andromeda's story. In Greek mythology, Andromeda was chained to a rock as punishment for her mother's arrogance. She awaited her fate at the hands of Cetus, a fearsome sea monster. However, Perseus came to her rescue and slayed the creature with Medusa's head. This artwork exudes lyricism and allegory as it explores themes such as beauty, femininity, and heroism. It draws inspiration from Ovid's writings on Perseus and Andromeda while infusing its own interpretation into the narrative. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, we are transported to another time where myth intertwines with reality. It serves as a reminder that art has always been deeply intertwined with literature and mythology – capturing not only physical forms but also emotions and stories that transcend time itself.
