EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of John Collier's renowned painting, "Lilith, 1887". The artist skillfully captures the essence of Lilith, a character deeply rooted in Jewish mythology as Adam's first wife. Painted with oil on canvas, this seductive portrayal reveals Lilith's refusal to accept her inferiority to Adam and her unyielding desire for equality. The image exudes an air of coiling sensuality and eroticism through the depiction of a naked female figure entwined with a sinuous snake. With long, tangled tresses cascading down her back, she embraces both the serpent and her own nakedness fearlessly. Her alluring gaze and lascivious pose make it clear that she is no ordinary woman; rather, she embodies the archetype of a femme fatale. Collier masterfully captures every intricate detail - from the ringed snake slithering around Lilith's body to the wild expression in her eyes. This pre-Raphaelite artwork evokes feelings of lust and temptation while challenging societal norms surrounding women at that time. Displayed against a dark background, this powerful piece invites viewers into an enigmatic world where boundaries are blurred between good and evil. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly reproduced this painting in stunning clarity, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate its beauty up close.
