EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Plate 22 Cadmus Men Killed Serpent Draco Martius Cadmi socios depascit" is a mesmerizing depiction of an ancient tale. Inspired by Ovid's Metamorphoses, this artwork brings to life the legendary story of Cadmus and the slaying of the fearsome serpent. The etching showcases the masterful talent of Italian artist Antonio Tempesta, hailing from Florence and Rome during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. With intricate details and impeccable precision, Tempesta skillfully captures the intense moment when Cadmus and his comrades bravely confront their scaly adversary. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, our eyes are drawn to the sheer magnitude of the serpent as it coils menacingly around its victims. The expressions on each character's face reveal a mix of determination, fear, and awe in their encounter with such a formidable creature. The composition is further enhanced by delicate shading techniques that create depth and dimension within the scene. The contrast between light and shadow adds an element of drama to this epic battle between man and beast. Measuring approximately 15 3/16 x 20 1/2 inches (38.5 x 52 cm), this print transports us back in time to witness one of mythology's most thrilling episodes unfold before our very eyes. It serves as a testament to both Artokoloro's dedication to preserving historical artistry through prints as well as Tempesta's
