EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph print showcases a beautiful vase adorned with intricate reliefs of the nine Muses and Apollo, surrounded by tricolor quatrefoils in shades of green, white, and blue. The vase, a masterpiece of decorative art, is inspired by the classical world of ancient Greece and Rome. The Muses, the goddesses of the arts, are depicted in various stages of creation: Clio, the muse of history, holds a scroll; Thalia, the muse of comedy, holds a comic mask; Euterpe, the muse of music, holds an aulos; Terpsichore, the muse of dance, dances gracefully; Erato, the muse of poetry, holds a lyre; Melpomene, the muse of tragedy, wears a tragic mask; Urania, the muse of astronomy, holds a celestial globe; Calliope, the muse of epic poetry, holds a scroll and a pen; and Polyhymnia, the muse of sacred poetry, holds a veil. Apollo, the god of the sun, light, music, poetry, and prophecy, is depicted in the center, playing the lyre and surrounded by the Muses. The tricolor quatrefoils add a vibrant and dynamic contrast to the classical design, enhancing the overall beauty and elegance of the vase. This print is a reproduction of an original work by Frederick Rathbone, published in Old Wedgwood, the Decorative or Artistic Ceramic Work Produced by Josiah Wedgwood, in 1898. The original vase, made of ceramic, is a testament to the artistic vision and craftsmanship of Josiah Wedgwood, a pioneer in the field of pottery and ceramics. This print is a beautiful reminder of the enduring influence of classical mythology on art and culture.
