EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Mephistopheles and the Drinking Companions" transports us into the world of Goethe's Faust. Created in 1828 by Ferdinand Victor Eugene Delacroix, this illustration captures a pivotal moment in the story where Mephistopheles, a devilish character, engages with his drinking companions. The image is filled with an air of sorcery and mystery as we witness Mephistopheles' presence astonishing and alarming those around him. Delacroix's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the supernatural nature of these characters. As we gaze upon this print from Bibliotheque des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, we are reminded of the timeless allure of Goethe's Faust. The composition draws us into a world where good and evil collide, leaving us both fascinated and unsettled. While it is impossible to ignore the company depicted within this artwork, let us focus on their expressions rather than their identities. Each individual seems captivated by Mephistopheles' enchanting presence; some appear entranced while others display signs of trepidation. This mesmerizing piece serves as a reminder that art has the power to transport us beyond our reality. It invites contemplation on themes such as temptation, morality, and human nature itself. Let this evocative print ignite your imagination as you delve into the depths of Goethe's Faust alongside Mephistophe
