EDITORS COMMENTS
Megaera, Alecto, and Tisiphone, the Greek Erinyes, or Roman Furies, are depicted in this stunning handcolored copperplate engraving. Created by Jacques Louis Constant Lacerf after illustrations by Leonard Defraine, this print is a captivating representation of the terrifying goddesses from Greek and Roman mythology. The Erinyes, also known as the Furies, were vengeful deities who avenged crimes against bloodline and hospitality. Megaera, the most jealous and vindictive of the three, is shown here with a serpent in her hand, symbolizing her role as the embodiment of vengeance for adultery. Alecto, the avenger of unholy bloodshed, is depicted with a snake-entwined staff and a torch, representing her role in pursuing those who had shed blood. Tisiphone, the avenger of matricide, holds a whip and a pestle, symbolizing her role in punishing those who had harmed their mothers. This print, from the collection "Mythology in Prints, or Figures of Fabled Gods," published by Blanchard in Paris around 1820, is a testament to the enduring fascination with classical mythology. The intricate details of the engraving, from the goddesses' flowing robes to the intricate patterns on their snakes, showcase the skill and artistry of the engraver and illustrator. The use of handcoloring adds an extra layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a truly breathtaking work of art. Whether used as a decorative piece or as a study in mythology and art history, this print is a valuable addition to any collection. It offers a glimpse into the rich and complex world of ancient mythology and the artistic traditions that have continued to inspire and captivate us for centuries.
