EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration captures a pivotal moment in the Greek myth of Perseus and his mother, Danae. Created by artist Howard Davie, this colour lithograph depicts the dramatic scene when Perseus and his mother find themselves washed ashore on the island of Seriphos. In vivid detail, we see Perseus standing tall on a rocky ledge, holding tightly onto his mother and their precious baby. The crashing waves and foaming surf surround them, reminding us of the treacherous journey they have endured. Despite the danger that lurks beneath them, they have found temporary safety upon this precarious perch. Davie's skillful rendering brings to life the emotions etched across their faces - determination mixed with relief as they survey their new haven. The fisherman who rescued them from certain death can be seen in the background, a symbol of hope amidst adversity. The composition is filled with symbolism: Perseus represents strength and resilience while Danae embodies maternal love and protection. This image beautifully encapsulates their bond as they face an uncertain future together. As viewers gaze upon this print from "The Heroes of Greek Fairy Tales" by Charles Kingsley, we are transported into a world where mythical creatures roam and heroes are born. It serves as a reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is always hope for salvation and new beginnings.
