EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Out flew a beautiful fairy-like creature with rainbow-coloured wings" transports us into the realm of enchantment and mythical wonder. Created by Arthur C. Michael, this colour lithograph showcases an extraordinary moment from the legendary tale of Pandora's box. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness the opening of Pandora's box as a source of both hope and trepidation. As the lid is lifted, out emerges a breathtaking fairy-like creature adorned with wings that shimmer in every hue of the rainbow. Its ethereal beauty captivates our imagination and fills our hearts with awe. The artist skillfully captures the essence of curiosity through his depiction of children kneeling beside the chest, their eyes wide open in anticipation. The mythological symbolism behind this image resonates deeply; it reminds us that human nature is inherently curious despite knowing that satisfying our curiosity may lead to unforeseen consequences. Through this artwork, Michael pays homage to Prometheus, who gifted humanity fire against Zeus' will and was subsequently punished for his defiance. Pandora's story serves as a cautionary tale about succumbing to temptation and unleashing evil spirits upon the world. This children's illustration invites us to explore ancient mythology while embracing our sense of wonderment. It serves as a reminder that even amidst darkness and uncertainty, there is always room for hope to emerge – embodied here by the radiant presence of this magical creature with its resplendent wings.
