EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Odyssey: Odysseus and Penelope reunited" transports us to the ancient world of Greek mythology. The color lithograph, created by Newell Convers Wyeth in the early 20th century, beautifully captures a pivotal moment from Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey. In this scene, we witness the long-awaited reunion of Odysseus and his faithful wife Penelope. After enduring countless trials and tribulations during his ten-year journey home from the Trojan War, Odysseus finally returns to Ithaca disguised as a beggar. Only Penelope recognizes him through a test she sets up for her suitors - stringing his bow and shooting an arrow through twelve axe heads. The image portrays their emotional embrace as they are reunited after years of separation. Their expressions reflect relief, joy, and deep love that has withstood time and adversity. Wyeth's attention to detail brings out every nuance of their faces while also capturing the grandeur of their surroundings. This print was originally commissioned as an illustration for George Herbert Palmer's translation of The Odyssey in 1929. It serves as a visual testament to the enduring power of this timeless story about resilience, loyalty, and perseverance. As we gaze upon this artwork today, it reminds us not only of these legendary figures but also prompts us to reflect on our own journeys – both physical and metaphorical – where love triumphs over all obstacles encountered along the way.
