EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Ixion in Tartarus on the wheel" transports us to the depths of Greek mythology. Created by artist Michel de Marolles in 1655, this engraving is a part of his renowned collection called Tableaux du Temple des Muses. The image depicts Ixion, a legendary figure from Greek mythology who was condemned to eternal punishment in Tartarus for his wicked deeds. In this scene, we witness Ixion bound to a spinning wheel as he endures his torturous sentence. The intricate details captured by Marolles bring forth the intensity and anguish experienced by Ixion. Tartarus, known as the deepest part of the Underworld reserved for evildoers, serves as an ominous backdrop for this haunting portrayal. The seventeenth-century art media used adds depth and texture to every stroke, enhancing our connection with this ancient tale. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are reminded of the enduring power of mythological stories that continue to captivate our imagination centuries later. This French print offers us a glimpse into both history and folklore while showcasing Marolles' artistic prowess. Now preserved within Jean Claude Carriere's esteemed collection, this print stands as a testament to Michel de Marolles' contribution to art and storytelling alike. It serves as an invitation for viewers to delve into the rich tapestry of Greek mythology and explore its timeless themes of punishment and redemption.
