EDITORS COMMENTS
Francois-Xavier Fabre's captivating print, "Cleombrote and Leonidas" (c. 1795), transports us back to ancient Greece during the 18th century. This evocative work of art, now part of the esteemed collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcases the compelling narrative of a father-daughter duo, Cleombrote and Leonidas, from Plutarch's Lives. In this monochrome drawing, Fabre masterfully employs pen and black and brown ink with brush and brown wash, as well as touches of blue gouache over red chalk heightened with white gouache on blue laid paper laid down on gray laid paper. The somber color palette adds depth and emotion to the scene, as father and daughter stand before a royal court in Sparta. The father, Leonidas, is depicted as a resolute monarch, dressed in the regal attire of a Lacedaemonian king. His expression conveys a sense of sadness and determination as he pleads for leniency on behalf of his traitorous daughter, Cleombrote. She, in turn, clings to him, her youthful features etched with a mix of fear and desperation. The setting is a law court, where the fate of Cleombrote hangs in the balance. The concept of fatherhood and its complexities are at the heart of this powerful composition. The image invites us to ponder the depths of a father's love and the consequences of his actions when faced with the transgressions of his child. Fabre's "Cleombrote and Leonidas" is a poignant reminder of the rich literary and artistic heritage of ancient Greece, as well as the enduring themes of family, loyalty, and the human condition.
