EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph, "Glaucus and Ione seek refuge in the witch's cave" transports us to ancient Pompeii during its final days. Created by Frederick Coffay Yohn, this vibrant print captures a pivotal scene from Edward Bulwer Lytton's renowned novel, "The Last Days of Pompeii". The image depicts Glaucus and Ione, two central characters seeking shelter within the mystical confines of a witch's cave. As Vesuvius ominously looms in the background, threatening destruction upon the Roman city below, Glaucus and Ione find solace amidst their perilous surroundings. The artist skillfully portrays their desperation as they turn to an enigmatic sorceress for protection against impending doom. The rich colors and intricate details bring this moment of suspense to life. This artwork not only showcases Yohn's artistic prowess but also serves as a visual representation of English literature set against the backdrop of Italy. It is a testament to the enduring power of storytelling across cultures and time periods. Through this mesmerizing print, we are transported back in time to witness both the beauty and fragility of ancient Pompeii. It reminds us that even in times of chaos and uncertainty, humanity seeks refuge wherever it can be found – even within the realm of witches and sorceresses.
