EDITORS COMMENTS
. This mesmerizing print captures a scene from the tragic ballet "Jason and Medea" performed in France during the 18th century. The illustration, taken from Emily Morse Symonds' book on social caricature, showcases the dramatic intensity of this iconic production. In this image, we witness a female dancer gracefully dressed as Medea, exuding both strength and vulnerability. She is surrounded by an orchestra playing haunting melodies on their musical instruments, with a flautist stealing the spotlight. The stage is filled with performers who bring to life characters from Greek mythology. The artist George Paston skillfully portrays not only the physical beauty of these actors but also their emotional depth through his monochrome depiction. Their expressions convey anguish and despair as they delve deep into their roles. As we gaze upon this snapshot of theatrical history, it transports us back to a time when arts were at its zenith. This print serves as a testament to the power of storytelling through dance and music—a timeless form of entertainment that transcends boundaries. Let us appreciate this remarkable piece for what it truly represents—an artistic treasure that immortalizes an era where tragedy met grace on stage.
