EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The golden ram took them on his back and vanished" we are transported into the realm of ancient Greek mythology. The image, taken from George Allen and Unwin's publication of "The Heroes" in 1929, showcases the extraordinary tale of Phrixus and Helle. Dressed in elaborate costumes that reflect the era, two children embody the young heroes as they embark on a daring escape. Armed with weapons fit for legends, their eyes sparkle with excitement and determination. It is said that these brave souls were carried away by a magnificent golden ram, whose divine powers allowed it to disappear into thin air. This enchanting scene captures not only the imagination but also highlights the enduring power of myths and folklore. Through generations, stories like these have been passed down as lessons in courage, resilience, and adventure. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork by George Soper, we cannot help but be reminded of other legendary figures such as Jason and his Argonauts who embarked on epic quests guided by gods themselves. These tales continue to inspire both young minds and those who seek wisdom from ancient civilizations. "The golden ram took them on his back and vanished" serves as a timeless reminder that within every child lies an untamed spirit yearning for heroic adventures beyond our wildest dreams.
