EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting beauty of "Calliope, Muse of Eloquence and Epic Poetry". The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life this allegorical figure from ancient Greek mythology. Created by Leon de Laborde in the 19th century, this color engraving is a true masterpiece. Calliope, known as the Muse of Eloquence, stands tall with grace and elegance. Her flowing robes drape around her like poetry in motion. With a laurel wreath adorning her head, she exudes wisdom and inspiration. The artist skillfully captures Calliope's essence as she holds a quill pen in one hand while resting the other on an open book. It is as if she beckons us to delve into the world of epic poetry and eloquent words. This artwork is based on a Roman mosaic that appeared in Mosaique Italica, adding another layer of historical significance to its allure. Engraved by N. L. Rousseau with meticulous precision, every line and curve reflects the dedication put into creating such a stunning piece. Displayed proudly at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this print transports viewers back to an era where art was revered for its ability to capture both imagination and intellect.
