EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Apollo and His Horses" by Francoise Verdier takes us back to the 18th century, immersing us in the realm of Greek mythology. The artwork, housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcases Apollo, the god of music and sun, in all his majestic glory. In this exquisite drawing heightened with white chalk on light brown laid paper, Verdier masterfully captures Apollo's divine essence. With a laurel crown adorning his head and a bow and arrow in hand, he exudes power and grace. The artist pays meticulous attention to detail as every stroke brings out the strength of Apollo's muscular physique. Apollo is depicted alongside his loyal companions - horses that symbolize both war and music. Their regal presence adds an air of grandeur to the composition while emphasizing their significance in Roman mythology. Verdier's skillful rendering transports viewers to ancient Europe as they witness this iconic deity playing his lyre – an instrument synonymous with harmony. Through this artwork, we are reminded of Apollo's role not only as a god but also as a cultural figure who inspired artists throughout history. This remarkable print serves as a testament to Francoise Verdier's talent for capturing mythological narratives through artistry. It invites us into a world where gods reign supreme and reminds us of humanity's enduring fascination with these timeless tales from antiquity.
