EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating litho print titled "He went down in his golden chariot, and his daughters by his side" transports us to a mythical world of ancient legends and heroic tales. The artwork, created by Howard Davie between 1914-1944, depicts Aietes, the King of Colchis, rushing towards the river with great speed in his magnificent golden chariot. Accompanied by his daughters Medeia and Chalciope, he seeks to appease the nymphs who reside there. In this mesmerizing scene from Greek mythology, we witness the power and grandeur of royalty as Aietes hurries through a bustling crowd towards the temples. His daughters stand proudly beside him, embodying strength and loyalty. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the flowing manes of horses pulling the chariot to Aietes' gleaming sword held firmly at his side. This litho print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also invites us into an enchanting narrative filled with heroes and mythological creatures. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with ancient civilizations and their rich tapestry of stories that continue to captivate audiences today. Displayed within private collections worldwide, this extraordinary piece showcases Davie's mastery as an illustrator while allowing viewers to immerse themselves in a world where gods walked among mortals and legends were born.
