EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Odyssey: Polyphemus, The Cyclops" takes us on a visual journey through ancient Greek mythology. Created by the talented artist Newell Convers Wyeth, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey. The focal point of the image is Polyphemus, the fearsome Cyclops from Greek folklore. With his single eye glaring menacingly and his muscular frame dominating the scene, he exudes power and danger. This illustration was originally commissioned for George Herbert Palmer's translation of The Odyssey in 1929. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring to life the mythical world of ancient Greece. From Polyphemus' weathered skin to the lush greenery surrounding him, every detail has been meticulously crafted to transport viewers into this fantastical realm. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the enduring appeal and significance of mythological stories. They continue to captivate our imaginations and offer insights into human nature and morality across generations. This print serves as a testament to both Wyeth's artistic talent and Homer's timeless narrative. It invites us to delve deeper into these ancient tales that have shaped our cultural heritage for centuries.
