Discover the mesmerizing world of Acis, a captivating tale woven through various forms of art and nature. From the ethereal beauty of Supernova remnant IC 443 to the stunning X-ray image of Supernova remnant N132D, this composite image takes us on a cosmic journey. In the heart of Paris, Jardin du Luxembourg unveils its enchanting Fontaine de Medicis, where Aci and the nymph Galatea come to life in intricate detail. Step into history with East Wall's Chamber of Cupid and Psyche (Sala di Amore e Psiche), painted between 1526-1528, showcasing an intimate moment between Aci and Galatea. Nature too pays homage to Acis with its delicate Rose-coloured acis flower (Acis rosea) blooming in vibrant hues. The fluttering wings of blue butterflies add another dimension to this narrative, from varieties like Pasha and hairstreak butterflies. Artistic interpretations further breathe life into Acis' story - be it through oil paintings capturing their love or chromolitho prints depicting their encounters with Polyphemus. Ker-Xavier Roussel's masterpiece 'Polyphemus, Acis and Galatea' transports us to a different era while Roman-Pompeian wall painting showcases Galatea's struggle against Polyphemus' advances. Join us as we delve into the timeless saga - where celestial wonders meet artistic brilliance and natural beauty intertwines with mythical tales.
