EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Calypso trying detain Ulysses child prepares" we are transported to a mythical world filled with intrigue and emotion. Created by Giulio Bonasone, an Italian artist active in Rome and Bologna during the 16th century, this print from the Liszt Collection showcases his exceptional talent for storytelling through art. The scene depicted here is both dramatic and poignant. Calypso, a beautiful nymph known for her enchanting powers, desperately tries to prevent Ulysses' departure by preparing his young child for battle. The child stands before us adorned in armor, symbolizing the weight of responsibility he must bear at such a tender age. As Mercury falls from the sky above them, casting an ethereal glow upon the scene, we can sense the anticipation and tension building. Will Calypso's efforts be enough to keep Ulysses' son by her side? Or will destiny prevail? Bonasone's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. From the intricate patterns on the armor to the delicate expressions on each character's face, he masterfully captures their emotions and brings them to life. This print not only serves as a visual feast but also invites us into a timeless tale of love, loss, and sacrifice. It reminds us that even amidst fantastical realms and mythical beings, human emotions remain universal throughout history.
