EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Echo and Narcissus or Eco e Narciso" transports us to the world of ancient mythology. Created by Luigi Ademollo in Florence, 1832, this illustration is a visual representation of Book III from Ovid's Metamorphoses. The scene depicts two central characters: Echo, a nymph who suffered Juno's wrath for aiding Jove in his infidelities, and Narcissus, a young man known for his unparalleled beauty. Tragically consumed by self-love, Narcissus falls deeply in love with his own reflection and ultimately perishes from the anguish of being unable to unite with himself. In this image, we witness Echo desperately chasing after her unrequited lover. Her feminine figure elegantly flees while calling out to him with her fading voice. Meanwhile, Narcissus pushes away any potential connection as he focuses solely on his own image. Adorned with classical elements such as bow and arrows symbolizing desire and passion, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of unattainable love within Roman mythology. It serves as a reminder of the complexities that lie within human emotions and desires. As part of The Stapleton Collection held privately but made available through Fine Art Finder's extensive catalogue, this piece invites viewers into an enchanting world where mythological figures come alive through intricate engravings like these.
