EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "As he spoke, the still and vast features of the goddess seemed suddenly to glow with life" by Frederick Coffay Yohn depicts a mesmerizing moment in history. The artwork is a color lithograph that beautifully captures the essence of an ancient Roman goddess coming to life. The image portrays a scene from Edward Bulwer Lytton's novel, "The Last Days of Pompeii" where the protagonist speaks passionately about mythology and literature. As his words resonate through the air, the serene and immense features of the goddess seem to transform before our eyes, emanating a vibrant glow. Yohn's attention to detail brings this mythical encounter to life, showcasing his artistic prowess. The composition transports us back in time to Pompeii, just moments before its tragic destruction by Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. This piece not only highlights Yohn's talent but also pays homage to classical literature and Roman culture. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time and bring ancient stories into contemporary consciousness. Displayed within private collections worldwide, this print invites viewers on an enchanting journey filled with wonder and imagination. Its presence evokes curiosity about history while celebrating both Germanic and Italian cultures within Europe – two nations known for their rich artistic heritage.
