EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting artwork "L'Apres-Midi d'un Faune" by H. Reidel, created in 1920. The pochoir print beautifully captures the essence of this mythical and mesmerizing scene. In this image, we witness a moment filled with direction, movement, and mythology. The focal point of the artwork is a female figure gracefully running through an idyllic landscape. She is being pursued by a half-goat, half-human creature known as a faun or satyr. This pursuit creates an atmosphere of excitement and anticipation as the woman tries to escape her pursuer. The artist skillfully portrays the chase between these two characters, highlighting their contrasting natures - one human and vulnerable, while the other possesses supernatural qualities. It is within this pursuit that we see elements of mythological storytelling come to life. Georges Barbier's illustration brings forth a wonderful character from ancient myths into our modern world. The faun represents both fascination and fear due to its monstrous appearance but also embodies freedom and wildness. Through this art piece, viewers are transported into a realm where reality blends with fantasy; where women are chased by mythical creatures amidst breathtaking landscapes. It serves as a reminder of the power that art holds in capturing moments that transcend time and space. This exquisite engraving stands as an exceptional example of French culture's rich artistic heritage while showcasing Barbier's immense talent as an illustrator.
