EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the ancient Greek seas, where danger lurks in every corner. The artwork, titled "The Adventure with Scylla" was created by the talented artist Henry Justice Ford in 1926. Inspired by Andrew Lang's Tales of the Greek Seas, this piece depicts a terrifying encounter with Scylla, a fearsome six-headed monster. As we gaze at the image, we witness a ship sailing perilously close to the cliff where Scylla dwells. With her monstrous arms outstretched and jaws wide open, she seizes six unfortunate crew members from Odysseus' vessel. The scene is filled with horror and tension as these brave sailors face their impending doom. Ford's monochrome depiction adds an eerie atmosphere to this legendary tale from Homer's Odyssey. The intricate details of each head on Scylla's body showcase his artistic skill and attention to mythological accuracy. "The Adventure with Scylla" transports us into a world of naval warfare and mythical creatures that once haunted ancient Greece. It serves as a reminder of mankind's constant battle against nature's perils during times of transportation across treacherous waters. This historical gem from Heritage Images captures both the imagination and fear associated with Greek mythology while paying homage to Henry Justice Ford's contribution to art in the early 20th century.
