EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Hero and Leander" we are transported to a world of suffering, misfortune, and the power of nature. The winter landscape sets the stage for a scenic storm as Leander bravely swims through tumultuous waters towards his beloved Hero. As he battles against the elements, Hero sits anxiously on an isolated island, waiting for her courageous companion. The print beautifully captures the essence of their story - a tale that has been depicted in various biblical and mythological scenes throughout history. Here, Hieronymus Cock and Matthys Cock skillfully portray the intensity of their journey amidst thunderstorms and treacherous waters. Leander's determination is evident as he defies all odds to reach his beloved. His clothes cling to him as he fights against powerful currents, symbolizing his unwavering commitment despite adversity. Nature plays a significant role in this artwork; it becomes both an obstacle and a witness to their love story. The turbulent water serves as a metaphor for life's challenges while also highlighting the strength of human resilience. Quint Lox masterfully captures this iconic scene from mythology with great attention to detail. Through this photo print, we are reminded of the enduring power of love even in times of hardship.
