EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Revenge of Tomyris, Paulus Pontius, unknown, 1630" by Quint Lox from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to a dramatic moment in history. The image depicts the legendary Queen Tomyris of the Scythians seeking vengeance against Cyrus, the Persian king who had conquered her people. The scene unfolds within the opulent confines of Tomyris' palace. Draped in regal attire and accompanied by her loyal servants, she stands before an ornate vessel filled with human blood. With unwavering determination etched on her face, she orders a man to kneel before her and dip his bowl into the crimson liquid. As he complies with trembling hands, soldiers watch intently from behind him. Their eyes reflect a mix of awe and fear as they witness their queen's thirst for revenge being quenched. This powerful visual symbolizes not only Tomyris' desire for retribution but also her defiance against those who sought to conquer her people. Paulus Pontius masterfully captures this pivotal moment in history through his intricate details and skillful use of light and shadow. Through this photo print, Quint Lox invites us to delve into ancient tales of power struggles and triumphs while reminding us that even amidst darkness, justice can prevail.
