EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Daedalus, Demeter, Ceres, Dido, Dionysus, Bacchus" transports us back to the 19th century and immerses us in a world of mythology and history. Created by the English School, this print is part of a private collection. The artwork depicts an array of mythological figures from various ancient civilizations. Daedalus, known for his exceptional craftsmanship; Demeter and Ceres, goddesses associated with agriculture and fertility; Dido, the legendary queen of Carthage; Dionysus and Bacchus, gods of wine and revelry. Each character represents different aspects of human existence that were revered during those times. Illustrated as black-and-white engravings against a backdrop reminiscent of ancient Greece or Rome, these mythological figures are surrounded by several animals including tigers and wild cats. The presence of these creatures adds an element of mystique to the scene. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for William Smith's "A Classical Dictionary" which aimed to provide comprehensive information on biography, mythology, and geography. It serves as a visual representation that brings these mythical characters to life while also paying homage to classical knowledge. Through this artwork's intricate details and historical context captured within its lines and shading techniques typical of 19th-century engravings we are transported into a world where myths intertwine with reality
