EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print titled "LAMIA MONSTER, 1658" transports us back to the intriguing world of Greek mythology. Created by Edward Topsell for his renowned book "A History of Four-Footed Beasts" this artwork showcases the artist's exceptional talent and attention to detail. The Lamia Monster depicted in this print is a fascinating chimera, combining various elements from different creatures. With its powerful body and four legs, it exudes strength and mystery. The intricate lines etched into the woodcut bring out every scale and feature, making it seem almost lifelike. Topsell's work not only captures the essence of Greek mythology but also reflects the artistic style prevalent during that era. The use of nudity in this piece adds an additional layer of symbolism, representing vulnerability or perhaps even temptation. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from 1658 London, we can't help but marvel at how art has evolved over time while still retaining its ability to captivate our imagination. This woodcut serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with mythical creatures throughout history and their enduring presence in our collective consciousness.
