The Furies Departing, 1880
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that showcases the artistic brilliance of Flaxman. This mesmerizing image captures the moment when the Furies bid farewell to Athena, Apollo, and Oreste. Taken from "Stories from the Greek Tragedies" by Rev. Alfred J. Church, M. A. , this print transports us to ancient Greece. In this black background portrait, we witness three powerful female figures walking away with purpose and grace. Their colorful attire adds vibrancy to the scene while symbolizing their divine status as deities. With commanding hand gestures and solemn expressions, they embody justice and command respect. The concept behind this photograph beautifully merges classical mythology with British artistry of the 19th century. The panoramic photography style enhances our immersion into this mythical world as if we were witnessing it firsthand. Flaxman's attention to detail brings forth every nuance of emotion in each character's face and body language. As these goddesses depart on their rambling journey through time and space, one cannot help but be captivated by their presence. This stunning portrayal serves as a reminder of how ancient stories continue to inspire contemporary literature and art forms even today. It is a testament to both Flaxman's talent as an artist and Rev. Alfred J Church's dedication in preserving these timeless tales for generations to come. As we gaze upon "The Furies Departing" we are reminded of the enduring power of mythological narratives that transcend borders, cultures
