EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph, titled 'Medallions mounted in gold and steel,' is a captivating work of art from the collection of Frederick Rathbone's Old Wedgwood. The print, produced by W. Griggs in 1898, showcases a collection of intricately designed medallions, each mounted on a background of gold and steel. The central theme of the medallions revolves around mythological figures and symbols from Greek and Roman mythology. The top medallion depicts nymphs engaged in a sacred ritual, offering sacrifices to the goddess Peace. The tranquil figure of Peace, with her olive branch and pigeon, presides over the scene. Beside Peace, the god Apollo is depicted strumming his lyre, the symbol of his musical and poetic talents. Nearby, Cupid, the god of love, is shown riding on the back of a swan, his arrow ready to strike the heart of an unsuspecting lover. The Cancer Zodiac sign is also featured, with its crab symbol and the inscription 'Cancer.' The bottom medallion showcases a Bourbonnais shepherd, a traditional French shepherd from the Bourbonnais region, with his flock of sheep. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this chromolithograph make it a true masterpiece of decorative and artistic ceramic work produced by Josiah Wedgwood. The gold and steel mounting adds an elegant and sophisticated touch, making it a timeless piece that continues to captivate viewers even today.
