EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable representation of a Tarasque beating a man, captured in an 1883 painted plaster sculpture by the talented artist Amy, Jean Barnabe. The artwork can be found at the Palais de Longchamp in Marseille, France. In this striking piece, Jean Bernard skillfully captures the essence of violence and raw emotion. The scene depicts a monstrous dragon-like creature known as the Tarasque mercilessly attacking and overpowering a helpless human figure. The intricate carving and attention to detail bring this imaginary character to life, evoking both fear and awe. This mythical beast is deeply rooted in French folklore and mythology. The composition transports us back to the 19th century when such fantastical creatures were often depicted in art as symbols of power, mystery, and danger. It serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with monsters throughout history. The image also explores themes of mortality and death through its violent portrayal. The juxtaposition between the ferociousness of the Tarasque and the vulnerability of the human figure creates an unsettling tension that leaves viewers captivated. Jean Bernard's skillful execution breathes life into this fictional character while simultaneously inviting contemplation on our own mortality. Through his artistry, he invites us to delve into our imagination while confronting our fears head-on. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into European artistic traditions from centuries past while showcasing Jean Bernard's mastery in capturing both beauty and brutality within his work.
