EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Apollo in Vulcan's Forge" transports us to a world of myth and fantasy. Created by the talented artist Edward Francis Burney, this pen and ink with wash on paper artwork is a true masterpiece. The image showcases Apollo, the Greek god of music and poetry, amidst the fiery depths of Vulcan's forge. The composition is filled with symbolism and intricate details that captivate the viewer's imagination. Flames dance around Apollo as he stands tall, holding a torch that illuminates his surroundings. In the background, machinery hums with activity, adding an element of mystery to the scene. Notably present in this artwork are cherubic figures - Cupid himself appears alongside Apollo, armed with arrows from his quiver. This fusion of classical elements from both the 18th and 19th centuries creates a unique blend of styles that adds depth to this piece. Burney's skillful use of line work brings out every nuance in this drawing, emphasizing not only Apollo's divine presence but also his vulnerability through nudity. The artist masterfully captures both strength and fragility within one frame. This exceptional print serves as a testament to Burney's talent for storytelling through art while also showcasing Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving historical works for future generations to appreciate.
