EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page from John Milton's renowned epic poem, "Paradise Lost" beautifully illustrated by William Strang. The image transports us to a bygone era, where we witness Milton himself playing the cello for his beloved daughters. The delicate etchings by Strang depict a scene of familial harmony and artistic expression. As Milton skillfully plucks at the strings of his instrument, his daughters listen intently, their faces filled with admiration and awe. This intimate moment captured in time reflects not only the poet's love for music but also his dedication to nurturing creativity within his family. Milton's "Paradise Lost" is an iconic work that explores profound religious themes and delves into biblical mythology. Through this series of illustrations, Strang brings these concepts to life, infusing them with Victorian sensibilities and intricate details that captivate the viewer. As we gaze upon this rare lithograph from 1896, we are reminded of the enduring power of literature and art. It serves as a testament to both Milton's literary genius and Strang's artistic prowess. This limited edition print offers us a glimpse into history—a visual representation of one man's poetic journey through faith and imagination. Intriguingly blending elements from different centuries—17th-century poetry brought to life through 19th-century illustration—the image evokes a sense of timelessness that continues to resonate with audiences today.
