EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph by Frederick Richardson depicts a scene from Greek mythology where a great fish swims endlessly through the waters. The intricate details of the fish and the surrounding waves transport viewers to a world of ancient legends and mythical creatures.
The image is part of "The Wonder Book of Myths and Legends" compiled by William Byron Forbush, published in 1928. Richardson's skillful illustration brings to life the story of this majestic creature as it glides gracefully through the sea.
In Greek mythology, dolphins were often seen as symbols of protection and good luck. They were believed to be messengers sent by Poseidon, the god of the sea. This print captures the essence of that mystical connection between humans and marine animals in ancient times.
The black-and-white contrast adds a timeless quality to this artwork, emphasizing its mythic nature. The ship in the background hints at an epic journey or adventure waiting to unfold.
Overall, this lithograph is a beautiful representation of storytelling through art, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in tales of old and marvel at the wonders of mythological creatures like the great fish swimming on and on.
