EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Odysseus at the throne of Arete" artist Charles Robinson transports us to the ancient world of Greek mythology. The print, part of a private collection, depicts a pivotal moment from "The Adventures of Odysseus" retold by Fs Marvin, R J C Mayor, and F M Stanwell. At the center of the composition stands Odysseus himself, known as Ulysses in Latin literature. Dressed in regal attire befitting a hero, he gazes confidently at Queen Arete's majestic throne. This powerful image captures both his determination and respect for authority. Surrounded by an aura of mystery and legend, this scene evokes the timeless allure of Greek myths. The intricate details in Robinson's engraving bring to life the rich tapestry woven by Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey". It is through encounters like these that Odysseus navigates his treacherous journey back home after the Trojan War. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to ancient Greece itself – a land filled with gods and goddesses, heroes and monsters. Through its masterful execution and attention to detail, this print invites us to delve into our own odyssey as we explore the depths of human courage and resilience. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these mythical tales continue to captivate our imagination and inspire us on our own heroic quests.
