EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The Daughters of Cecrops, King of Attica, Find Erichthonius" artist Hendrick Heerschop transports us to a mythical world steeped in ancient Greek lore. Created between 1650 and 1672, this exquisite piece of fine art captures a pivotal moment in the story of Cecrops' daughters. As we gaze upon the scene, we witness three young women standing amidst lush foliage. Their graceful figures are draped in flowing garments that seem to dance with the wind. With their heads turned towards one another, they appear deep in conversation or perhaps sharing a secret. The attention to detail is remarkable; every strand of hair and fold of fabric is meticulously rendered by Heerschop's skilled hand. The play of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the composition, creating an almost ethereal atmosphere. But what exactly has captured these daughters' attention? We can only speculate as our eyes are drawn downward towards an enigmatic figure lying at their feet – Erichthonius. Is he asleep? Or is there something more mysterious at play? This artwork invites us into a world where mythology intertwines with human emotions and curiosity. It serves as a reminder that even within ancient tales lies timeless themes that resonate with our own experiences today. Displayed proudly in museums or galleries worldwide, this print from Liszt Collection allows art enthusiasts to bring home a piece of history while immersing themselves in its beauty and intrigue.
