EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Deianira, 1878" transports viewers to the enchanting world of Greek mythology. Created by Evelyn De Morgan in her signature art nouveau style, this exquisite gouache on paper masterpiece measures 45.7x30.5 cm and is held in a private collection. In this evocative artwork, we witness Deianira, the third wife of Heracles, immersed in profound melancholy amidst a serene mountain landscape. The artist skillfully captures her distraught state through delicate brushstrokes and muted colors that evoke a sense of sadness and unhappiness. Dressed in an elegant Grecian toga, Deianira stands alone among towering trees as she contemplates her troubled fate. Her expression reveals both vulnerability and strength as she grapples with the consequences of her actions within Greek mythology. Morgan's portrayal of Deianira not only showcases her technical prowess but also highlights the enduring power of mythological narratives throughout history. This painting serves as a poignant reminder that even legendary figures are not immune to heartbreak and despair. With its timeless beauty and emotional depth, "Deianira" invites us into a world where ancient tales intertwine with artistic mastery. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we cannot help but be captivated by its haunting allure and contemplate our own place within the vast tapestry of human experience.
