EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Ulysses, the legendary king of Ithaca and renowned hero of Homer's Odyssey, in a mesmerizing depiction on Ogygia. Created by the talented illustrator Joseph Noel Paton for his own poem published in London in 1864, this illustration beautifully captures the essence of Ulysses' epic journey. Paton, who was also known as the original illustrator of Charles Kingsley's beloved work "The Water Babies" demonstrates his exceptional skill in bringing ancient Greek mythology to life through his intricate artwork. With meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of literature, Paton transports us back to a time when heroes like Ulysses roamed the lands. In this particular scene, we witness Ulysses standing tall against the backdrop of Ogygia - an island where he was held captive by Calypso for seven long years. The image exudes both strength and vulnerability as Ulysses contemplates his fate amidst turbulent waters and treacherous wars. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of Ulysses' resilience but also of the enduring power that ancient myths hold over our collective imagination. This print serves as a testament to Joseph Noel Paton's artistic brilliance and his ability to breathe life into timeless tales from centuries past.
