EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the spirit of the tumultuous aftermath of the First World War, as the devils of greed and revenge revel in the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919. The grandiose setting of the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles, once a symbol of opulence and power, now serves as the backdrop for this dark tableau. The central figure, a grotesque and menacing Gorgon, represents the all-consuming desire for vengeance that fueled the post-war settlement. Flanking her, a cackling horde of devils delight in the suffering and strife that the Treaty would inflict upon Europe. The broken swords and shattered dreams scattered at their feet serve as a poignant reminder of the human cost of the conflict. As the world struggled to find a path to peace, these malevolent forces reveled in the chaos and destruction, their insatiable appetites fueled by the ashes of war. This haunting image encapsulates the complex and often contradictory emotions that marked the end of the First World War, and serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring power of human passion and desire.
