EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hercules saves Hesione or Ercole che Libera Enione, Book XI" transports us back to ancient Greek mythology. The hand-coloured engraving by Luigi Ademollo in 1832 beautifully illustrates a scene from Ovid's Metamorphoses. In this mesmerizing artwork, we witness the heroic Hercules coming to the rescue of Hesione. Neptune, god of the sea, demands her sacrifice but is thwarted by Hercules' intervention. With his immense strength and determination, Hercules not only saves Hesione from certain death but also marries her off to his loyal companion Telamon. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this enchanting piece. From the intricate engravings depicting mythical creatures and classical architecture to the delicate use of color that brings life to each character, Ademollo masterfully captures the essence of this mythological tale. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a world where gods and heroes roam freely. We feel a sense of awe at witnessing such an epic moment unfold before our eyes. This artwork serves as a reminder of the enduring power and timeless beauty found within ancient myths. Displayed proudly in The Stapleton Collection, this Italian masterpiece reminds us that art has no boundaries when it comes to capturing extraordinary stories like those found in Greek mythology.
