EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John Melhuish Strudwick's masterpiece, "Acrasia" painted in 1888. The oil and gold paint on canvas bring to life the enchantress Acrasia from Edmund Spenser's renowned work, "The Faerie Queene". Measuring 70.5x56.5 cm, this artwork is held in a private collection. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness Acrasia as both seductive and vulnerable. Surrounded by a lush garden filled with sensual flowers and fruits, she reclines gracefully while playing her harp and singing sweet melodies. Her beauty is undeniable, but it conceals a fatal weakness that lures unsuspecting knights into her trap. The painting exudes an aura of magic and temptation as Acrasia casts her spell over all who encounter her. With a sword resting beside her shield and armor nearby, she symbolizes the danger that lies beneath her seemingly innocent facade. Strudwick's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke - from the delicate caressing of musical instruments like the lute and viol to the intricate botanical elements that add depth to the composition. "Acrasia" embodies the essence of femme fatale - an irresistible temptress whose allure leads men astray. This Pre-Raphaelite masterpiece explores themes of lust, entrapment, and sensuality through its exquisite portrayal of beauty corrupted by evil.
