EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Amazone blessee - Wounded Amazon" by Franz von Stuck, a renowned German artist from the late 19th and early 20th century. Painted in 1905, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive size of 62.8x72.7 inches and is currently housed at Harvard University in Cambridge. The painting depicts a wounded Amazon warrior, symbolizing strength and resilience amidst battle. The mythological figure is portrayed as a horsewoman or ecuyere, with her naked body serving as a powerful statement of vulnerability and bravery simultaneously. Clad in armor consisting of a shield, helmet, and spear, she stands defiantly against an unknown enemy. Stuck's attention to detail is evident through his meticulous brushwork that brings life to every element within the composition. The centaur-like creature lurking behind the Amazon adds an intriguing touch of fantasy to the scene. The presence of blood on her chest suggests she has suffered injuries during combat while emphasizing her unwavering determination to fight until death if necessary. This piece draws inspiration from ancient Greek mythology and echoes Homer's epic tales. Through this remarkable artwork, Stuck invites viewers into a world where women are warriors capable of facing any challenge head-on. It serves as both an homage to classical legends and a celebration of female empowerment throughout history.
