EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Clytemnestra, c1927" showcases the artistic brilliance of Vera Willoughby. Inspired by the ancient Greek legend, this piece depicts Clytemnestra, the wife of Agamemnon and ruler of the Ancient Greek kingdom of Mycenae or Argos. The photograph beautifully captures her essence against a vibrant city backdrop. In this mesmerizing image, Clytemnestra stands outdoors at night in a flowing red dress that contrasts vividly with the darkness surrounding her. The play of shadows adds depth to her figure as she gracefully dances barefoot on the streets of an ancient city reminiscent of Greece's Peloponnisos region. Willoughby's attention to detail is evident in every aspect: from Clytemnestra's veiled head and expressive eyes to her delicate posture and elegant movements. This watercolor portrait transports us back in time to experience the mythological world where gods and mortals intertwined. Published in 1927 as part of Studio Volume 94 by London Offices of The Studio publications, this print collector's item has become a treasured representation of both ancient Greece and early 20th-century artistry. It serves as a testament to Willoughby's talent for capturing mythical narratives through visual storytelling. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded not only of Clytemnestra’s role within Greek mythology but also how artists like Vera Willoughby continue to breathe life into timeless tales through their masterful creations
