EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving of Pandora and her box, based on Lawrence Alma-Tadema's artwork, captures the essence of Greek mythology. Pandora, the first human woman created by the gods, is depicted here alongside her infamous box or jar. According to ancient myth, she was crafted by Hephaestus and Athena under Zeus' instructions. The moment frozen in this print signifies a pivotal event in human history. Pandora's curiosity got the better of her as she opened the container, mistakenly referred to as "Pandora's box" in modern times. As a result, all the evils that plague humanity were unleashed upon the world. The artist skillfully portrays this classical mythological character with intricate detail and emotion. The engraved image showcases Pandora's beauty and innocence while hinting at the impending doom brought about by her actions. This illustration not only serves as a reminder of our ancient past but also highlights themes such as temptation, consequences, and mankind's eternal struggle against evil forces. It represents an era when art movements like neo-classical style flourished and artists like Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema left their mark on history. As we gaze upon this antique piece from 1882 published in The London Illustrated News, we are transported back to a time when storytelling through art was cherished. This print allows us to appreciate both its artistic value and its significance within Greek mythology - an enduring tale that continues to captivate audiences today.
