EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Orestes taking refuge from the Furies" transports us to the ancient world of Greek mythology. Created by an English School artist in the 20th century, this print captures a pivotal moment in Orestes' story. In this scene, Orestes is depicted seeking sanctuary from the relentless pursuit of the Furies. These vengeful goddesses represent divine retribution for those who have committed heinous crimes within their own family. Orestes, driven by his duty to avenge his father's murder, had slain his mother Clytemnestra and her lover Aegisthus. The artist skillfully portrays Orestes as a figure cloaked in red robes against a backdrop reminiscent of South Italian pottery. This choice not only adds visual interest but also alludes to the classical origins of this tale. The fourth-century BC vase depicted in this engraving further emphasizes its historical significance. It serves as a reminder that these stories have captivated audiences for centuries and continue to resonate with people today. This print is part of G. F Hill's collection "Illustrations of School Classics" published by Macmillan in 1903. The digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate every intricate detail and immerse ourselves fully into this mythical world. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the enduring power and timeless allure of classical tales like that of Orestes and his desperate quest for refuge from divine wrath.
