EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that showcases the artistic brilliance of Max Jacob, a renowned French poet, painter, writer, and critic. Born in Quimper, Brittany, France, Jacob's talent shines through this mesmerizing piece. In this vibrant image set against the backdrop of 20th-century France, we see Orpheus - a mythical Greek figure known for his musical prowess - surrounded by majestic pelicans. The artist skillfully captures Orpheus' divine aura as he holds a lyre or harp-like stringed instrument in his hands. The harmonious melodies produced by his music seem to resonate with nature itself. The scene takes place outdoors amidst lush greenery and serene waters. A sense of tranquility pervades as the pelicans gracefully gather around Orpheus while perched on branches of nearby trees. Their presence symbolizes both beauty and spirituality. Jacob's use of watercolor brings life to every stroke and infuses the artwork with vivid colors that enhance its ethereal quality. Through this masterpiece, he seamlessly blends mythology with nature to create an enchanting visual narrative. This print serves as a testament to Max Jacob's immense talent and creative vision. It invites viewers into a world where art transcends boundaries and transports us to realms where gods commune with mortals through music and nature intertwines seamlessly with human existence.
