EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the exquisite marble group sculpture of "Ino and Bacchus" by J H Foley, which is proudly held in the esteemed collection of The Right Honourable The Earl of Ellesmere. Created in 1849, this artwork beautifully captures a moment from Greek mythology. The scene depicts Ino, a mortal woman who was transformed into a sea goddess, holding the infant god Bacchus in her arms. As she gazes down at him with tender affection, he reaches out to touch her face. The delicate details and lifelike expressions captured in marble are truly remarkable. J H Foley's skillful craftsmanship shines through as he expertly portrays the emotional connection between these two mythical figures. This masterpiece not only exemplifies his talent but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of classical mythology within art. Housed within the private collection of The Earl of Ellesmere, this engraving offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate and study this significant work without being physically present. Its inclusion in The Art Journal further solidifies its importance within art history. Through this print, we can marvel at both Foley's artistic prowess and the beauty that lies within ancient myths brought to life through sculpture.
