This print captures the mesmerizing artwork titled "Landscape with Charon Crossing the Styx" by Joachim Patinir. Painted between 1515 and 1524, this oil on wood masterpiece is housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain. The painting depicts a scene from Greek mythology, showcasing Charon, the ferryman of Hades, as he navigates his boat across the river Styx in the Underworld. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings this mythological realm to life, with fiery landscapes and a foreboding atmosphere that perfectly encapsulates the concept of life after death. Patinir's skillful use of light and shadow creates a hauntingly beautiful composition.
