EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Dante Gabriel Charles Rossetti's masterpiece, "Aspecta Medusa" created in 1867. Using coloured chalks on paper, the artist skillfully brings to life the mythical figure of Medusa from Greek mythology. The artwork measures an impressive 56x52 cm and is held in a private collection. Rossetti's interpretation of Medusa is both enchanting and haunting. With her fiery red hair cascading down her shoulders, she exudes an otherworldly beauty that captivates viewers. The Pre-Raphaelite influence is evident in every delicate stroke, as Rossetti pays meticulous attention to detail. Medusa's mythological significance adds depth to this piece. As one of the three Gorgon sisters, she possesses a power that can turn anyone who gazes upon her into stone. This drawing captures her essence perfectly - a mix of vulnerability and strength. The image draws us into a world where ancient tales come alive through artistry and imagination. It serves as a reminder of the enduring fascination with mythology throughout history. Displayed against a dark background, "Aspecta Medusa" commands attention with its striking colors and intricate composition. This print by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate Rossetti's talent while preserving his legacy for generations to come.
