EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting portrait of "Helene - Femme De Menelas" by the Master of Berrys Cleres Femmes. Created in 1403, this particular rendition was printed in 1939 and is a part of the renowned manuscript De Claris mulieribus, translated anonymously into French as Livre des femmes nobles et renommees by Giovanni Boccaccio. In Greek mythology, Helen is celebrated as the daughter of Zeus and Leda, known for her unparalleled beauty that even Aphrodite herself could not surpass. The artist skillfully captures her allure through intricate details such as her vibrant red dress and golden hair adorned with a crown-like headpiece. Kneeling gracefully, Helene holds an apple in one hand while clutching an arrow - symbolizing warfare - in the other. This juxtaposition represents both her feminine charm and her involvement in significant historical events. The artwork's rich colors and gold leaf accents add depth to this fifteenth-century masterpiece, which now resides at the Bibliotheque nationale de France in Paris. As we gaze upon this image from Verve magazine's July-October 1939 edition, we are transported back to a time when mythological tales intertwined with human existence, reminding us of our fascination with timeless beauty and legendary narratives.
