EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph print titled "Eros and Psyche" transports viewers to the enchanting world of Greek mythology. Created by an anonymous Spanish artist in the 19th century, this artwork is a visual representation of a scene from Jose Coroleu's book "Las Supersticiones De La Humanidad". The exceptional quality of the chromolithograph is evident in its vibrant colors and intricate details. The image depicts Eros, the god of love, embracing Psyche, a mortal girl who became his lover. Their forbidden love story has captivated audiences for centuries. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the power that love holds over mankind throughout history. The composition showcases elements that symbolize both ancient Roman culture and human superstitions. The bed on which Eros and Psyche lie represents intimacy and passion while also alluding to our fascination with beds as symbols of comfort and rest. Surrounding them are various pieces of furniture and furnishings that further enhance the sense of beauty within this mythological realm. Through this artwork, we are invited to explore themes such as beauty, religion, and humanity's enduring belief in superstitions. It serves as a reminder that even though time passes, certain aspects of human nature remain constant. Bridgeman Images' reproduction allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured by the original artist. This stunning print invites us into a world where gods mingle with mortals – where love transcends boundaries set by society or time itself.
