EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph print, titled "Not a Trojan was on guard," transports us back to the ancient world of Greek mythology. Created by artist Stephen Reid in the early 20th century, this illustration brings to life a scene from Josephine Preston Peabody's book "Old Greek Folk Stories Told Anew."
In this image, we see a lone figure standing guard against the backdrop of an ancient city under siege. The intricate details and vibrant colours capture the essence of ancient Greece, with its legendary tales of heroes and gods.
The mythic atmosphere is palpable as we are drawn into the story unfolding before our eyes. The sense of duty and determination radiating from the central figure evokes a feeling of courage in the face of adversity.
As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded of the enduring power of storytelling and how it continues to captivate audiences across generations. Through art like this, we can connect with our shared human experiences and immerse ourselves in worlds long past yet still relevant today.
"Not a Trojan was on guard" serves as a timeless reminder that even in times of struggle, there is always someone willing to stand up and defend what they hold dear.
