EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "Ulysses and Sirens" takes us on a visual journey into the realm of Greek mythology. Created by the talented artist ZU_09 in 1880, this print beautifully depicts a scene from one of the most famous tales in ancient civilization. In this artwork, we witness Ulysses (also known as Odysseus), the heroic protagonist of Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey" encountering the enchanting yet treacherous Sirens. These mythical creatures possess irresistible voices that lure sailors to their doom with their bewitching songs. Ulysses, aware of their dangerous allure, is shown being tied to his ship's mast while his crew members plug their ears with wax to resist temptation. The wood engraving showcases intricate details and delicate lines that bring life to each character and element within the composition. The artist skillfully captures both Ulysses' determination and vulnerability as he navigates through this perilous encounter. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the enduring power of Greek mythology and its ability to transport us into fantastical worlds filled with heroes and mythical beings. It serves as a testament to our fascination with ancient Greece's rich cultural heritage and its timeless stories that continue to captivate audiences even today.
