EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the climactic moment when Perseus triumphantly holds aloft the decapitated head of Medusa, as illustrated for Charles Kingsley's "How Perseus came Home again" in "The Heroes of Greek Fairy Tales". The artist, Howard Davie, skillfully brings this legendary scene to life through a vibrant color lithograph. Perseus stands tall and resolute amidst the grandeur of the Hall of Polydectes. With his sword in hand and draped in a striking red cloak, he exudes both heroism and vengeance. The frozen expressions on the faces around him reveal their transformation into stone after gazing upon Medusa's hair of snakes. Intriguing details abound within this artwork. Mercury's sandals lie discarded nearby, symbolizing swiftness and divine aid. A goat skin bag rests at Perseus' side, containing Medusa's severed head with its power to turn enemies to stone. Meanwhile, music fills the air as Hermes plays a lyre—a woodwind instrument—adding an ethereal touch to this fantastical scene. Through Davie's masterful brushstrokes, we witness not only Perseus' triumphant return but also his ultimate victory over evil itself. This print serves as a testament to the enduring allure of Greek mythology and reminds us that even in our darkest moments, heroes can emerge victorious against monstrous adversaries.
