EDITORS COMMENTS
Les Mysteres, illustration from Les Chansons de Bilitis, by Pierre Louys, pub. 1922 (pochoir print) captures the essence of eroticism and sensuality in a mesmerizing display of art deco brilliance. Created by Georges Barbier, this exquisite piece takes us on a journey to ancient Greece, where rose petals adorn the scene and passion fills the air. The image depicts two female figures engaged in an intimate embrace, celebrating love and desire without reservation. It beautifully explores themes of lesbianism and homosexuality with grace and elegance. The women's bodies intertwine gracefully as they revel in their connection amidst a backdrop that transports us to another time. Barbier's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; his mastery of color brings life to each delicate petal and contour of the figures' bodies. This artwork stands as a testament to Barbier's skill as an illustrator within the art movement of early 20th century France. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the power that art holds – its ability to transcend boundaries and challenge societal norms. Through this evocative portrayal of love between women, Barbier invites us into a world where acceptance reigns supreme. This stunning piece from Bridgeman Images serves as both a celebration of female beauty and an homage to ancient Greek culture. It reminds us that even within historical contexts marked by repression or taboo subjects such as homosexuality can find expression through artistic creation.
