EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning artwork titled "Pegasus, with Hercules slaying the Bull" originally published between 1808-1810. Created by an anonymous French School artist from the 19th century, this color lithograph is a part of a private collection. The image is an illustration taken from a binding of "Peintures de Vases Antiques Vulgairement Appeles Etrusques" by Aubian Louis Millin de Grandmaison, accompanied by an introduction to the study of ancient clay-painted vases known as Etruscan. The piece features Pegasus, the legendary winged horse, alongside Hercules engaged in combat against a formidable bull. The composition beautifully captures various decorative motifs and designs commonly found in ancient Etruscan and Greek ceramics. With its monochrome black figure style and ornate details, this artwork tells a heroic narrative of Herakles bravely slaying a wild creature. The clash between man and beast depicted on this pottery vase evokes feelings of confrontation and conflict. The intricate ornamentation adds depth to the scene, making it both visually striking and culturally significant. Displayed within The Stapleton Collection, this remarkable print allows viewers to appreciate not only the artistic mastery but also gain insight into ancient mythology and storytelling through ceramic artistry.
