EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Leto, the mother of Apollo and Artemis, surrounded by a diverse group of mythological figures. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of each character in this 19th-century masterpiece. At the center stands Leto, radiating maternal grace and strength. Her children, Apollo and Artemis, flank her on either side, exuding youthful energy and beauty. The artist's attention to detail is evident in their delicate features and flowing garments. To Leto's right stands one of the Graces, symbolizing elegance and charm. With her serene expression and graceful pose, she adds an element of harmony to the composition. On Leto's left is Neptune, god of the sea, depicted with regal poise as he holds his trident. Completing this intriguing ensemble is one of the Furies - a figure representing vengeance - adding an air of mystery to the scene. Morfeo (Morpheus), known as the god of dreams also makes an appearance here. The hand-colored copperplate engraving brings these mythical characters to life with vibrant hues that enhance their individual personalities. This illustration originates from Giulio Ferrario's renowned work "Costumes Ancient and Modern" providing a glimpse into ancient Greek mythology through fashion history. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, this print serves as a testament to both classical mythology enthusiasts and art connoisseurs alike.
