EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the hauntingly tragic scene of "Medea, or the Marriage of Jason and Creusa" by Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn. The etching depicts a pivotal moment in Greek mythology where Jason betrays his wife Medea by marrying Creusa, daughter of King Creon of Corinth. The composition showcases an architectural marvel with its grand church or temple setting. Columns rise majestically towards a canopy, creating an atmosphere of solemnity and reverence. A male figure, presumably Jason, stands at the center while two female figures flank him on either side. One can almost feel the tension in their poses as they embody conflicting emotions - love, betrayal, vengeance. A priest presides over the wedding ceremony at an altar adorned with steps leading up to it. The figures are dressed in oriental costumes; some wear turbans adding an exotic touch to the scene. Medea's wrath is evident as she presents her cursed gift - a dress that will ultimately lead to Creusa's demise. This image encapsulates themes of jealousy, tragedy, and revenge within its intricate details. It serves as a powerful reminder of how human desires can lead to devastating consequences. Displayed at Musee de la Ville de Paris' Musee du Petit-Palais in France, this masterpiece continues to captivate viewers with its emotional intensity centuries after it was created by one of history's greatest artists.
