EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a pivotal moment from Jean Racine's classic French tragedy, "Iphigenie en Aulide" (Iphigenia in Aulis), first performed in Paris in 1674. The play, based on the ancient Greek myth of Iphigenia and her sacrifice, is a poignant exploration of the complexities of family loyalty, duty, and divine intervention. At the heart of the scene captured in this print is Clytemnestre, the anxious and reluctant mother of Iphigenie. Dressed in rich robes and with an expression of deep concern etched on her face, Clytemnestre clings to her daughter, trying to shield her from the impending sacrifice. Iphigenie, shown with a serene and resolute expression, appears to accept her fate, her arms outstretched as if to embrace it. The backdrop of the print is filled with the chaos of the Greek camp, where the soldiers and priests prepare for the sacrifice. The smoke from the sacrificial pyre rises in the background, a stark reminder of the terrible fate that awaits Iphigenie. This powerful image captures the emotional intensity and dramatic tension of Racine's masterpiece, which continues to captivate audiences with its exploration of the human condition and the timeless themes of love, sacrifice, and the bonds of family.
