EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Ulysses and Circe, 1938" we are transported into the enchanting world of Greek mythology. Created by Stephen Reid in vibrant color lithography, this artwork beautifully captures a scene from A Wonder Book and Tanglewood Tales published in 1938. The image depicts the legendary hero Ulysses encountering the sorceress Circe on his epic journey. Dressed in elaborate costumes that reflect their mythical status, Ulysses stands tall with his sword while surrounded by his loyal crew. The attention to detail is evident as each character's expression conveys a mix of determination and awe. Circe, known for her ability to transform men into animals, adds an air of mystery to the composition. Pigs can be seen scattered around her domain, symbolizing those who have fallen victim to her powerful magic. The tension between Ulysses and Circe is palpable as they engage in a battle of wits and wills. Reid's skillful use of color brings life to this ancient tale, allowing us to immerse ourselves fully in its rich narrative. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of the enduring power of mythological stories that continue to captivate our imaginations today.
