Midas with the pitcher - Greek mythology
King Midas of the Golden Touch is known in Greek mythology for being able to transform everything he touched into gold, following his encounter with a mysterious stranger. It became a disastrous gift when his beloved daughter was also turned to gold. The stranger returned and declared that the process could be reversed if Midas took a pitcher to the river, filled it, and sprinkled the water over everything which had been transformed to gold. In this illustration, Midas is filling the pitcher at the river

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported to the ancient world of Greek mythology, where the tragic tale of King Midas and his fateful encounter with a mysterious stranger unfolds. The image depicts Midas himself, standing at the edge of a serene river, filling a pitcher with water. It is in this very act that he hopes to reverse the disastrous curse that has befallen him. King Midas was bestowed with an extraordinary gift - everything he touched turned into shimmering gold. However, what seemed like a blessing soon became his greatest sorrow when even his beloved daughter was transformed into lifeless gold by his touch. Desperate for redemption and haunted by grief, Midas sought out the enigmatic stranger who had granted him this power. Now we witness Midas as he carries out the instructions given to him by the stranger - filling a humble pitcher from the flowing river waters. With each drop collected within its vessel, hope flickers in Midas' eyes as he prepares to sprinkle it over all that has been petrified by his golden touch. This poignant illustration captures both despair and determination on King Midas' face as he embarks on this quest for forgiveness and restoration. Whitemay's skillful portrayal transports us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this timeless mythological narrative filled with lessons about greed, consequences, and ultimately finding redemption through humility and repentance
