EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Ganymede carried off into Heaven or Ganimede Rapito, Book X" transports us back to the enchanting world of Greek mythology. Created by Luigi Ademollo in 1832, this hand-coloured engraving is a visual representation of Ovid's Metamorphoses. In this scene, we witness the divine abduction of Ganymede, a handsome mortal youth who caught the attention of Zeus, king of the gods. Disguised as an eagle, Zeus swoops down from the heavens and snatches Ganymede away from his earthly existence. The young man's expression reveals both surprise and awe as he is whisked off to serve as cup-bearer to the gods on Mount Olympus. Ademollo's intricate details bring this ancient tale to life. The flowing robes and graceful poses capture the essence of classical artistry while conveying a sense of movement and drama. The artist skillfully incorporates elements such as a walking stick or cane that add depth to the composition. This print not only showcases Ademollo's talent but also serves as a testament to Ovid's enduring influence on Western literature and art. It invites viewers into a world where mortals interact with deities and mythical creatures roam freely—a realm where imagination knows no bounds. As we admire this exquisite piece from Bridgeman Images' Stapleton Collection, we are reminded once again that great works of art have the power to transcend time and transport us across centuries into realms filled with
