EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a weathered fresco from Pompei, Italy, dating back to the 1st century A. D. The artwork depicts an enthralling scene of Hercules, Deianira, and Hyllus crossing the mighty river Evenus. Steeped in Roman civilization and mythology, this ancient piece of art transports us to a time long gone. The cracked surface of the fresco adds a sense of antiquity and mystery to the image. The pastel colors that have withstood the test of time bring forth a unique charm that only fine art painting can possess. Four people are depicted in this vertical composition - two men and two women - each playing their part in this mythical tale. Hercules stands tall as one would expect from such a legendary hero, while Deianira gazes ahead with determination. Hyllus accompanies them on their perilous journey across the treacherous river Evenus. In the background looms Nesso, a fearsome centaur who plays a significant role in this fictional being's story. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of Roman civilization preserved through centuries, we are reminded of its historical significance and cultural richness. It serves as an enduring testament to human creativity and imagination throughout different eras.
