EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Amphion, 1615" transports us back to the realm of ancient Greek mythology. Created by Leonard Gaultier in the early 17th century, this print showcases Amphion and Zethus, the twin sons of Zeus and Antiope. The brothers played a significant role in shaping the city of Thebes as they were responsible for constructing its mighty walls. In this scene, we witness Amphion engrossed in his musical prowess. Holding a violin-like instrument delicately against his chin, he effortlessly produces enchanting melodies that seem to resonate with the very essence of creation itself. As notes float through the air, it is said that these harmonious sounds possess an otherworldly power capable of moving stones and shaping architecture. Gaultier's intricate attention to detail brings forth not only Amphion's mastery over music but also highlights his connection to architectural marvels. Through their divine heritage and skillful craftsmanship, these mythical figures merge artistry with construction - symbolizing how creativity can shape our physical surroundings. This remarkable artwork captures both mythological intrigue and artistic finesse within its delicate engravings. Preserved within the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this historical masterpiece continues to inspire awe as it invites us into a world where gods mingle with mortals and music intertwines with architecture.
