EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the ancient world of Greek mythology. The scene depicts a pivotal moment in the completion of Heracles' famous Twelve Labours - the death of King Diomedes of Thrace. Standing tall and powerful, the demigod Heracles watches with intensity as Diomedes is devoured by his own savage horses. The image captures the raw brutality and unforgiving nature of this mythological tale. As instructed, Heracles had set out to steal Diomedes' mares, notorious for their insatiable appetite for human flesh. In this tragic climax, we witness the consequences faced by those who dared challenge divine heroes. Engraved by Fr. Steber after Schedy, every detail in this print exudes a sense of history and religious significance. The vertical composition emphasizes both the grandeur of Heracles and the impending doom that awaits King Diomedes. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation but also evokes emotions tied to literature and arts culture. It transports us back to an era where gods walked among men and mortals were tested through extraordinary feats. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking print from Kean Collection/Getty Images, we are reminded once again that even great kings can fall prey to their own vices - a timeless lesson woven into Greek mythology's rich tapestry.
