EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing piece of art, the "Gorgons Head" which is a copy of an original antique Greek vase from the early 19th century. Created using color lithography by the French School in the 19th century, this masterpiece can be found at the Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France. The image depicts a decapitated Gorgon's head with intricate details that are both intriguing and haunting. The mask-like face features a twisted grimace, revealing sharp teeth and a menacing tongue. Snakes slither through her wild hair, adding to her mythical allure. Adorned with decorative patterns and tooth-like shapes surrounding her eyes, this artwork exudes an air of mystique and power. The Gorgon's piercing gaze captures your attention as you get lost in the intensity of her eyes. Symbolically representing Medusa, this portrayal emphasizes her role as a protective talisman against evil forces. The presence of snakes further reinforces her connection to reptilian creatures and wildlife. This print not only preserves an exquisite work of art but also invites us to delve into ancient mythology and explore its timeless significance. With its rich history and artistic brilliance, it serves as a testament to human creativity throughout different eras.
