EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Gustave Moreau's masterpiece, "Peri, elephant sacre" housed in the National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo, Japan. Painted in 1882, this artwork represents an exquisite blend of angelic symbolism and Orientalist influences. In this enchanting piece, a woman symbolizing a Peri (a mythical creature from Persian folklore) is depicted alongside a sacred elephant. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring the painting to life as the woman gracefully hovers above a serene lake surrounded by lush plants and flowers. A bird soars beside her, adding to the sense of ethereal beauty. Moreau's work often explores themes of travel and dreams, evident here through his portrayal of this otherworldly scene. The presence of angels and seraphs further enhances the mystical atmosphere captured within this 19th-century masterpiece. The artist's use of color adds depth and richness to every element within the painting - from the vivid hues adorning both animals to the delicate shades found in nature's backdrop. This harmonious fusion creates an unforgettable visual experience that transports viewers into a realm where imagination knows no bounds. "Peri, elephant sacre" serves as a testament to Moreau's artistic genius while also highlighting his fascination with exoticism and allegory. It is truly an awe-inspiring representation of wildlife intertwined with human emotion – inviting us all into its mesmerizing world.
