EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Finished study for Opes (chalk)" by Evelyn De Morgan takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the realm of ancient Roman mythology. The image showcases a powerful female figure, adorned in flowing robes and surrounded by an abundance of symbolism. At the center of the composition stands a goddess, believed to be Ops, the Roman deity associated with fertility and abundance. With her serene expression and regal posture, she exudes an air of authority and wisdom. Coiled around her arm is a sinuous snake, representing both renewal and transformation. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of chalk that brings this artwork to life. The intricate rendering of corn stalks surrounding Ops symbolizes bountiful harvests and prosperity. This harmonious blend of nature and divinity underscores the interconnectedness between humans and their environment. De Morgan's portrayal captures not only the physical beauty but also the spiritual essence embodied by these mythological figures. Through this stunning piece, we are reminded of our connection to nature as well as our reliance on its resources for sustenance. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to an era where gods ruled over earthly affairs. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with mythology while celebrating the timeless themes of growth, abundance, and harmony with nature that continue to resonate today.
