EDITORS COMMENTS
Jason and the Dragon" is a captivating and enigmatic work of art created by the Italian Baroque painter and engraver, Salvator Rosa, around 1663 or 1664. This masterpiece, a testament to the artistic brilliance of the 17th century, is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., USA. The monochromatic image, etched in drypoint and engraving, depicts the legendary Greek hero, Jason, standing defiantly before a towering dragon. Jason, clad in a simple tunic and armed with a spear, exudes a sense of determination and courage as he faces the mythical beast. The dragon, with its fiery breath and menacing eyes, is a formidable adversary, ready to unleash its fury upon the intruder. The scene is set against a backdrop of rugged, rocky terrain, further emphasizing the raw power and primal energy of the encounter. The use of black and white, or monochrome, adds to the dramatic effect, highlighting the contrast between the hero and the beast, as well as the starkness of the landscape. Greek mythology comes to life in this mesmerizing etching, as the tale of Jason and the dragon unfolds before our eyes. The hero, on a quest to obtain the Golden Fleece, must first overcome this fearsome creature to prove his worth. This powerful image encapsulates the essence of the myth, transporting us back to a time of heroic deeds and legendary battles. Salvator Rosa's "Jason and the Dragon" is a masterful blend of art and mythology, a timeless piece that continues to captivate and inspire viewers. The National Gallery of Art is fortunate to have this heritage art treasure in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the artistic prowess of the past and the enduring allure of Greek mythology.
