Circe Invidiosa, 1892
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil on canvas painting by the renowned artist John William Waterhouse. This mesmerizing artwork, housed in the Art Gallery of South Australia, transports viewers into the realm of ancient Greek mythology. The scene depicts Circe, a powerful sorceress from Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey" as she cunningly prepares her poisonous concoction. With intense focus and an air of malevolence, Circe embodies both beauty and danger. Her enchanting gaze draws us in while reminding us of her treacherous nature. Waterhouse's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate folds of Circe's flowing gown to the delicate flowers adorning her hair. The rich colors and soft lighting create an ethereal atmosphere that adds depth to this allegorical masterpiece. This painting not only captures a pivotal moment in Greek mythology but also reflects Waterhouse's affiliation with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Known for their meticulous approach and love for literary themes, these artists sought inspiration from classical tales like "The Odyssey". As we admire "Circe Invidiosa" we are reminded of Odysseus' perilous journey home after the Trojan War and his encounter with this beguiling sorceress. It serves as a testament to Waterhouse's ability to bring ancient legends to life through art. With its timeless allure and masterful execution, "Circe Invidiosa" continues to captivate audiences today
