EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from ancient Greek mythology, Dryope, the devoted wife of Andraemon, is shown in a moment of tranquility as she gathers flowers in the forest. The serene scene is disrupted, however, by an unseen force. Unwittingly, Dryope has plucked a flower that is not what it seems. Hidden amongst the foliage, the nymph Lotis had taken refuge in the disguise of a beautiful blossom. Enraged by being disturbed, Lotis retaliated against Dryope, transforming her into a tree as a punishment for her intrusion. The historical account of this myth is shrouded in mystery, with various versions describing Lotis as either vengeful or sympathetic towards Dryope. Dryope's metamorphosis into a tree is a poignant reminder of the unintended consequences of human actions. In this classical tale, the line between the natural world and the human experience is blurred, as Dryope's transformation leaves her both a part of the forest and forever removed from it. The image of Dryope as a tree also serves as a testament to the enduring beauty of nature, even in the face of adversity. This evocative print, depicting Dryope's transformation, offers a glimpse into the rich history and mythology of ancient Greece. The intricate details of the image, from the delicate flowers to the expressive faces of Dryope and Lotis, transport us to a time when myths and legends shaped the way people understood the world around them. Whether viewed as a work of art or a historical artifact, this print invites us to reflect on the power of nature and the complexities of human emotion.
