EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of Richard Willes Maddox's engraving, we are transported into the world of Greek mythology and the tragic tale of Medea. The image beautifully captures the essence of this complex character, known for her sorcery and cunning intellect. Medea is depicted here with an air of both power and vulnerability. Her piercing gaze reveals a depth of emotion that hints at the turmoil within her soul. The artist skillfully portrays her as a woman torn between love and revenge, struggling to reconcile her own desires with the consequences they may bring. The intricate details in Maddox's engraving further enhance our understanding of Medea's story. From the flowing robes that drape around her figure to the delicate lines etched into her face, every element serves to convey a sense of tragedy and inner conflict. This particular print was featured in The Graphic on November 18th, 1893, adding historical significance to its artistic value. It is now part of a private collection but has been made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork, we cannot help but be drawn into Medea's world - a world where passion collides with betrayal and where one woman's actions forever change the course of history.
