EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Amphitrite" showcases the enchanting sea goddess from Greek mythology. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is now part of a private collection. Amphitrite, wife of Poseidon and symbol of virginity, holds immense significance in ancient stories and beliefs. The image portrays Amphitrite surrounded by dolphins, known as her loyal companions. As a representation of the world's seas, she exudes power and grace while holding a shell - a common attribute associated with her mythological persona. Amphitrite's popularity in Greece can be traced back to Roman times when paganism was prevalent. Her presence within polytheistic religions further emphasizes her importance among believers who worshipped multiple deities. This print not only captures the beauty and allure of Amphitrite but also serves as a reminder of the rich tapestry woven by ancient myths and legends. It invites viewers to delve into the fascinating realm of Greek mythology where gods and goddesses reigned supreme over land and sea. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exquisite piece through their Fine Art Finder platform, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its historical value without commercial use intentions.
