EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph titled "I am a stranger here, and know of no oracle; but what of my one sandal?" by Howard Davie, we are transported into the realm of Greek mythology. The image depicts Jason, the legendary hero and leader of the Argonauts, as he enters the city of Iolcus. As Jason stands amidst a bustling crowd in front of an impressive ancient dome, his missing sandal becomes a symbol that foretells his destiny. Having lost it while crossing the river Anaurus, Jason fulfills a prophecy from an unknown oracle. This auspicious event catches the attention of Pelias, who sends him on a perilous quest to find the Golden Fleece. The illustration beautifully captures both the classical architecture and mythical elements associated with Greek legends. It invites us to delve into these timeless stories filled with heroes and gods. Davie's skillful use of detail brings life to this scene from ancient times. The crowded streets teem with anticipation as people gather around Jason, unaware that they are witnessing history in motion. Through this artwork, we are reminded that even strangers can be destined for greatness when faced with extraordinary circumstances. "I am a stranger here, and know of no oracle; but what of my one sandal?" is not just an exquisite piece from Davie's collection but also serves as an invitation for viewers to explore their own destinies within mythological narratives.
