EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the powerful and legendary figure of Thamyris - Reine De Scythie, a renowned queen from ancient times. Painted by the talented Master of Berrys Cleres Femmes in 1939, this artwork is an illustration from the manuscript De Claris mulieribus, housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque nationale de France. Thamyris, also known as Thomyris, was a fearless warrior queen who put an end to Cyrus the Great's reign. Considered to be one of the last queens of the Amazons, she symbolizes strength and determination. In this painting, her regal presence is emphasized by her royal attire adorned with gold leaf accents. The color palette chosen for this piece adds depth and intensity to Thamyris' character. The artist skillfully combines shades of red and grey to create a striking contrast that highlights both her femininity and her role as a monarch at war. This print not only captures Thamyris' legend but also represents creativity and nobility through its exquisite craftsmanship. It serves as a reminder of women's significant contributions throughout history. Displayed on an easel within a library setting, this artwork invites viewers into a world where legends come alive.
