EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite drawing "Apollo and Hyacinth" by Pietro Buonaccorsi, also known as Pierino del Vaga. Created in the 16th century, this piece of art is now housed in the prestigious Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The drawing, executed with a la sanguine technique, captures a poignant moment from Greek mythology. Apollo, the god of music and poetry, is depicted alongside Hyacinth, a young Spartan prince. The artist skillfully portrays their interaction through delicate lines and shading. In this mythological tale, Apollo's affection for Hyacinth leads to tragedy when a discus thrown by Apollo accidentally strikes and kills him. This tragic event symbolizes the fragility of life and serves as a reminder that even gods are not immune to sorrow. Buonaccorsi's mastery shines through his attention to detail and ability to convey emotion on paper. The composition exudes gracefulness while evoking feelings of both joy and sadness. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured beautifully in this print by ePhoto Josse, we are transported back in time to witness an ancient story brought to life through artistic brilliance. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of mythology and its influence on human creativity throughout history.
