In this print titled "Orpheus drowned out the Sirens, Greek mythology" we are transported back to ancient Greece and immersed in a scene of mythological allure. The image depicts an intense moment from the famous tale of Orpheus and the Sirens, beautifully captured by German painter Heinrich Leutemann in 1880. As our eyes wander across the print, we witness a group of brave Argonauts sailing through treacherous waters.

These mythical creatures possess irresistible voices that lure sailors towards their demise.
