EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail from an ancient Greek artwork, "Perseus Fleeing from the Gorgons". The image showcases a scene depicted on an Attic black-figure dinos, dating back to around 590 BC. Crafted by the talented Gorgon Painter during the flourishing period of Greek art, this pottery piece is now housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris. In this dynamic composition, we witness Perseus desperately escaping from the terrifying Gorgons. With his hat firmly secured and boots pounding against the ground, he races towards freedom with unparalleled determination. The artist's skillful use of black figure technique brings depth and intensity to every stroke. As Perseus flees for his life, two powerful horses gallop alongside him, symbolizing strength and agility. Meanwhile, lurking behind him are Medusa's fearsome sisters - their monstrous forms sending shivers down our spines. The level of detail captured in this photograph allows us to appreciate both the artistic mastery of the Gorgon Painter and the timeless tale of heroism that unfolds before our eyes. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of great peril, courage can prevail over adversity. This remarkable print by Peter Willi transports us back to ancient Greece while showcasing its enduring influence on art throughout history. A true testament to human creativity and resilience!
