EDITORS COMMENTS
In this color lithograph titled "Down came two fearful monsters, the like of whom man never saw" artist Howard Davie transports us into a mythical world filled with adventure and danger. The print is part of a private collection and features an illustration from Charles Kingsley's book "The Heroes of Greek Fairy Tales". The scene depicted in the artwork showcases a dramatic moment as two monstrous creatures known as Harpies descend upon Phineas of Salmydessus. These mythological beings, half-bird and half-human, are notorious for their insatiable appetite and their tendency to snatch food away from unsuspecting victims. Phineas, a royal figure in ancient Greece, finds himself at the mercy of these terrifying creatures who threaten to steal his meal. The intensity of the situation is palpable as we witness Phineas' struggle against these formidable adversaries. Davie's skillful use of vibrant colors brings life to this fantastical scene, while also highlighting the rich mythology that surrounds it. The intricate details in the illustration transport viewers back to an era where heroes embarked on epic quests and encountered unimaginable challenges. This print serves as a reminder of the enduring power that myths and fairy tales hold over our imaginations. It invites us to delve into worlds beyond our own, where anything is possible – even encounters with fearsome monsters like those seen here.
