EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back to ancient Greece and introduced to Themis, the goddess of justice, law, and equity. With a balance in one hand and a sword in the other, she embodies the principles of fairness and order that were revered by the Greeks.
The intricate details of this etching by Jacques Louis Constant Lacerf after Leonard Defrance's illustration bring Themis to life in stunning clarity. Her serene expression exudes wisdom and authority as she stands poised with her symbols of justice.
As we gaze upon this depiction of Themis, we are reminded of the importance of upholding moral values and ensuring that all are treated fairly under the law. The delicate hand coloring adds depth to the image, enhancing its beauty and making it a truly timeless piece of art.
This print serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring influence of Greek mythology on our understanding of justice and morality. It is a testament to the skillful craftsmanship of both Lacerf and Defrance, who have captured the essence of Themis with remarkable precision.
Overall, this print is not just a work of art but also a window into an ancient world where gods and goddesses ruled over humanity with grace and power. It is a tribute to Themis' eternal presence in our collective consciousness as an emblem of righteousness and truth.
