This print titled "Penelope (w/c on paper)" by Violet Brunton takes us back to the classical world of myth and legend. The image showcases a stunning painting depicting Penelope, the faithful wife of Odysseus, as she weaves her tapestry while waiting for her husband's return from the Trojan War. The artist skillfully captures Penelope's beauty and grace, surrounded by a flock of doves symbolizing peace and love. With a torch in one hand and wool in the other, she diligently works on her intricate web, representing both her loyalty to Odysseus and her determination to keep suitors at bay during his absence. The composition exudes a sense of anticipation and longing as Penelope unravels the threads each night—a clever ploy to delay remarriage—while secretly yearning for Odysseus' safe return. This poignant portrayal encapsulates the essence of Homer's epic poem, "The Odyssey" where Penelope becomes an enduring symbol of fidelity amidst turmoil. Displayed in this private collection, this artwork is not only visually striking but also serves as a reminder of our timeless fascination with mythology.
