Leucothoe Seduced by Apollo in the Shape of Eurynome, 1733
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Bernard Picart, we are transported to a world of secrecy and intrigue. The concept of darkness is beautifully depicted as Apollo, the deity of light, seduces Leucothoe in the form of Eurynome. The artist's masterful engraving brings out every intricate detail, from the delicate drape of their dresses to the expressions on their faces. Leucothoe sits gracefully, holding hands with her seducer under the cover of nightfall. This full-length illustration captures a moment frozen in time - a forbidden encounter between two mythical figures from Greek mythology. As we gaze upon this scene, we can almost feel the tension building between them. Picart's monochrome art media adds depth and mystery to this composition. The frame surrounding the image enhances its allure while emphasizing its religious undertones. It reminds us that gods and goddesses were not just distant beings but also embodied human desires. This print is part of Jean Claude Carriere's esteemed collection and showcases Picart's talent for capturing complex emotions through his engravings. As we delve into this artwork, it becomes clear that seduction knows no boundaries - whether mortal or divine.
