EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing painting "Captive Andromache" by Frederic Leighton, created in 1886. The artwork is housed in the City of Manchester Art Galleries, adding to its historical significance. The image captures a moment outdoors, where a solitary woman stands amidst a bustling crowd of men. Dressed in vibrant red and orange hues, she becomes the focal point against the backdrop of daily life. Leighton's masterpiece draws inspiration from Greek mythology and portrays Andromache, wife of Hector and captive after the fall of Troy. Her expression reflects her captivity as she gazes into the distance with an air of resignation. This painting beautifully encapsulates both mythological concepts and real-life emotions. Published in 1934 as part of "The World's Greatest Paintings" edited by T. Leman Hare for Odhams Press Ltd. , this print transports viewers back to the late 19th century art scene. It offers a glimpse into Lord Frederic Leighton's artistic prowess through his masterful use of oil on canvas. With its rich colors and intricate details, this portrait evokes a sense of awe and admiration for Leighton's talent as well as his ability to capture human emotion within his work. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece today, it serves as a testament to the enduring power that art holds over our imaginations across different centuries and cultures.
