EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Morning" by John Flaxman takes us on a journey back to the classical era. The print, now part of a private collection, showcases Flaxman's exceptional talent for capturing the essence of Greek mythology and literature. In this particular scene, we witness the enchanting dance of the Morning Hours. With their graceful movements and radiant smiles, these ethereal figures bring life and joy to the break of dawn. Their presence evokes a sense of revelry and celebration, as if they are welcoming each new day with exuberance. Flaxman's masterful interpretation draws inspiration from Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey" where Odysseus encounters various mythical creatures during his long journey home. By depicting this moment in time when morning unfolds its splendor, Flaxman pays homage to both classical literature and art. Through intricate details and delicate lines, Flaxman transports us into a world filled with beauty and wonder. The composition exudes an air of elegance that is characteristic of classical artistry while also showcasing Flaxman's unique style. As we gaze upon this exquisite print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we cannot help but be captivated by its timeless charm. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern age, the classics continue to inspire awe and fascination among those who appreciate their enduring legacy.
