EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 18th-century copperplate engraving, we are transported to the mythical world of Orphee and Orpheus, where music holds the power to enchant even the most unlikely of beings. Orphee, with her cat and lyre in hand, exudes a magnetic charm as she seduces animals, rocks, and trees with her melodic tunes.
Meanwhile, Orpheus stands tall with his voice and lyre raised high, drawing the attention of lions and birds alike. The ancient Greek setting adds an air of mystery and allure to this scene, as these mythological characters weave their magic through music.
The intricate details captured in this engraving by W. Walker after Charles Eisen truly bring this moment to life - from the delicate features of Orphee's face to the majestic presence of the lion at her feet. The lush foliage surrounding them only enhances the sense of nature's harmony being disrupted by their mesmerizing melodies.
As we gaze upon this print from The Copper Plate Magazine or Monthly Treasure published in London in 1778, we can't help but be drawn into the enchanting world depicted before us. It serves as a reminder of the timeless power that music holds over all living creatures - a universal language that transcends boundaries and captivates hearts across centuries.
