EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts the legendary tale of Paris and Helen from the epic poem, The Iliad, penned by the ancient Greek poet Homer. Paris, represented here as a young and handsome prince, holds a golden lyre in his left hand, while in his right, he tenderly caresses the enchanting Helen of Troy. The iconic scene captures the moment of their fateful encounter, which ultimately led to the Trojan War. Helen, renowned for her unparalleled beauty, gazes seductively at Paris with an expression that seems to promise an eternal love. Her elegant attire, adorned with intricate gold jewelry and a diaphanous veil, further accentuates her allure. The serene background, filled with lush greenery and a clear blue sky, adds to the idyllic setting of their meeting. The myth of Paris and Helen is deeply rooted in Greek history and literature, and their story has been retold through various art forms throughout the centuries. This photograph print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the timeless beauty and passion that continues to captivate the world. The intricate details of the image, from Paris's noble posture to Helen's mesmerizing gaze, evoke a sense of wonder and admiration for the ancient tale. As the legend goes, Paris was tasked with choosing the most beautiful woman among the three goddesses – Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite – as a reward for judging their beauty contest. Aphrodite, in return for Paris's favor, promised him the love of the most beautiful mortal woman, Helen. The consequences of their union were far-reaching, as it ignited the infamous Trojan War, which lasted for ten long years and resulted in the tragic deaths of countless warriors. This photograph print, however, focuses on the moment before the storm, immortalizing the enchanting encounter between Paris and Helen.
