EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dodone, 1615" takes us back to the enchanting world of Greek mythology. Created by Leonard Gaultier in the 17th century, this engraving is a part of Les Images Ou Tableaux De Platte Peinture Des Deux Philostrates Sophistes Grecs, a renowned work by Blaise de Vigenare. The image showcases Dodone, one of the Oceanid nymphs from Greek mythology. According to ancient tales, she was born as the daughter of Titans Oceanus and Tethys. In this depiction, Dodone stands as a wonderful and monstrous character simultaneously. Her presence exudes an air of mystery and beauty that captivates viewers. Gaultier's masterful engraving technique brings out intricate details in black and white tones. The lines are delicately etched to create depth and texture within the artwork. This Parisian creation transports us to a time when mythological creatures roamed freely in our imagination. As we gaze upon this piece, we can't help but be reminded of France's rich artistic heritage during the 17th century. It serves as a testament to European creativity and craftsmanship during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork for us to appreciate today through their Fine Art Finder collection. Let it transport you into the mythical realm where gods, nymphs, and legends intertwine with human existence
