EDITORS COMMENTS
An Old Story re-told, Orpheus and the Magic Flute (chromolitho) captures a moment of enchantment and tranquility in this print. The scene unfolds in an oasis, where visitors eagerly await the arrival of Orpheus, the legendary musician. As they gather around him, their faces filled with anticipation and admiration, Orpheus prepares to weave his musical spell. The wildlife animals also join in this peaceful gathering, as monkeys playfully observe from nearby trees. Their mischievous presence adds a touch of whimsy to the scene. One monkey even seems captivated by the magic flute itself. As Orpheus begins to play, his music releases abstracts charms into the air - melodies that have the power to soothe souls and awaken dormant emotions. The crowd falls into a deep slumber under its sweet influence while others listen intently or engage in quiet conversation during intervals. This print beautifully illustrates how art has the ability to transport us into another world - one where ancient stories are retold through vivid imagery. It invites us to pause for a moment and appreciate not only the talent of musicians but also our own capacity for wonderment. With its rich colors and intricate details, this chromolitho print is a true masterpiece that will bring joy and inspiration wherever it is displayed.
