EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the enigmatic allure of the Sphinx, as depicted in Jules Amedee Barbey d'Aurevilly's renowned novel Les Diaboliques. Created by Belgian artist Felicien Rops in 1874, this illustration showcases his exceptional talent for capturing both beauty and darkness. The Sphinx, a mythical creature with the body of a lioness and the head of a human, is portrayed here as an alluring female figure. With her wings gracefully spread wide and her gaze fixed upon something unseen, she exudes an air of mystery that is both intriguing and unsettling. Rops' attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pen. The intricate lines bring out the texture of the Sphinx's feathers while also highlighting her feminine form. Her bare breast adds an element of vulnerability to her otherwise fierce appearance. Set against a dark background, this profile view emphasizes the Sphinx's elegant silhouette. It invites viewers to contemplate not only her physical beauty but also the secrets she holds within. Displayed at Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this timeless artwork continues to captivate audiences with its haunting charm. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded that art has no expiration date – it transcends time and space to evoke emotions that resonate across generations.
