EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph titled "You have slain our evil king; be now our king and rule us well" artist Howard Davie transports us to the ancient world of Greek mythology. The scene depicts a triumphant young boy named Thessalus, son of Jason, being hailed as the new King of Iolcus after vanquishing the wicked Acastus. The print exudes an aura of power and victory as Thessalus stands tall amidst a cheering crowd. His youthful face reflects both determination and innocence, embodying the essence of a hero in classical tales. The golden fleece, symbolizing his heroic quest with the Argonauts, is prominently displayed behind him, further emphasizing his legendary status. Davie's meticulous attention to detail brings this mythological moment to life. From the expressions on each individual's face within the enthusiastic crowd to the intricate engravings that adorn their clothing, every element contributes to an immersive experience for viewers. "You have slain our evil king; be now our king and rule us well" captures not only a significant event in Greek mythology but also serves as a reminder of timeless themes such as courage, leadership, and triumph over adversity. This lithograph from Bridgeman Images is sure to captivate both art enthusiasts and those fascinated by ancient legends alike.
