EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "The warrior stretched out his arms to embrace his little one" we are transported back to ancient times, specifically the Trojan War. The image depicts a powerful warrior, believed to be Hector from Greek mythology, extending his arms in a loving gesture towards a small child named Astyanax. This tender moment between father and son is beautifully captured by the English School artist of the 19th century. The engraving showcases not only the emotional bond between parent and child but also highlights the complexities of war and its impact on families. As Hector prepares for battle, he takes a brief pause to shower affection upon his young son before facing an uncertain future on the battlefield. This artwork serves as an illustration for Chatterbox magazine in 1882, offering readers a visual representation of this poignant scene from Homer's epic poem, The Iliad. Through this image, we are reminded of the timeless themes explored in ancient Greek literature - love amidst conflict, sacrifice for honor and duty. With its digitally cleaned presentation courtesy of Look and Learn's collection, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such detailed engravings as well as our connection to mythological tales that continue to resonate with audiences today.
