EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "Le Someil D'Erigone" - The Sleep of Erigone. A semi-naked woman, depicted in a state of restful repose on a bed, exudes an aura of tranquility and grace. This image is taken from the renowned work "Illustrierte Sittengeschichte vom Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart" by Eduard Fuchs, originally published in 1909.
The scene evokes a sense of timeless beauty and sensuality, as the woman's partially exposed form hints at vulnerability and intimacy. The inclusion of grapes and vines surrounding her adds an element of lushness and fertility to the composition, symbolizing abundance and indulgence.
Drawing upon Greek mythology, this image references the legend of Erigone, daughter of Icarius. Her peaceful slumber suggests a momentary escape from reality or perhaps even intoxication with dreams. The outdoor setting further enhances the ethereal quality of the scene, inviting viewers to contemplate themes such as nature, femininity, and ancient lore.
Overall, this print offers a glimpse into a world where myth meets reality, where beauty intertwines with mystery. It serves as a reminder that art has the power to transport us to other realms and awaken our senses to new possibilities.
