EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Arion, from The Children's Hour: Stories from the Classics" takes us on a mythical journey through the depths of the sea. Created by Charles Edmund Brock, this colour lithograph showcases Arion, a legendary musician and hero. In this enchanting scene, we witness Arion seated gracefully atop a magnificent black fish as it glides through the night waters. With his lyre in hand, he mesmerizes both man and creature with his melodious tunes. The moonlight casts an ethereal glow upon him and his surroundings, creating an atmosphere of mystery and wonder. Inspired by Herodotus' tales of ancient Greece, this illustration beautifully captures the essence of mythological storytelling. Arion's bravery and musical prowess are celebrated here as he fearlessly embarks on his aquatic adventure. The intricate details in this artwork transport us to another world where heroes roam freely amidst dolphins and ships sailing under starry skies. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern times, these timeless stories continue to inspire awe and ignite our imagination. Displayed proudly in private collections worldwide, this print is not only visually stunning but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of classical literature. Let it be a source of inspiration for all who gaze upon its beauty.
