EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Roman artwork titled "Orphee charming birds". The mosaic, originating from Blanzy-les-Fisms and currently housed in Lyon's Museum of Fine Arts, is a testament to the artistic brilliance of the ancient Roman Empire. In this scene, Orpheus, a legendary musician and mythological character, stands amidst a lush landscape with an enchanting tree as his backdrop. Holding a lyre, he skillfully plays melodies that have an irresistible effect on the surrounding creatures. Birds of various species flock around him, their eyes fixed on Orpheus as they are bewitched by his musical prowess. The mosaic artist has beautifully captured the essence of seduction through music in this masterpiece. The intricate details bring life to each bird and highlight their individual expressions of awe and fascination. It is evident that Orpheus possesses not only musical talent but also an innate ability to connect with nature. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork frozen in time, we are transported back to ancient Rome where art was revered for its ability to evoke emotions and tell stories. This piece serves as a reminder of the enduring power that art holds over us throughout history. Through this photograph taken by Photo Josse, we can appreciate both the craftsmanship behind this mosaic and its significance within Roman culture.
