EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate pencil drawing titled "Eros and Aphrodite, 1910" by Eric Harald Macbeth Robertson. Measuring at an impressive 54.61x93.98 cm, this artwork is a true testament to the artist's dedication and skill. In this piece, Robertson immortalizes himself and his then-girlfriend, Jenny Campbell, as enigmatic figures hiking through a breathtaking landscape. However, what truly adds an air of mystery to the composition are the cowled monks that accompany them. While their presence remains unexplained, it is worth noting that during this period Robertson was engrossed in reading Helena Blavatsky's "The Secret Doctrine" which delves into esoteric and occult ideas. Drawing inspiration from ancient Greek mythology, Eros (the god of love) and Aphrodite (the goddess of beauty) take center stage in this mesmerizing scene. The artist masterfully captures their divine essence while exploring themes of nudity and nakedness. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate every meticulous detail of Robertson's work - from the delicate shading to the precise lines that bring these mythological deities to life. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time by immersing us in stories passed down through generations. Courtesy of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we have been granted access to experience this extraordinary piece firsthand without commercial intent or use – allowing us to marvel at its beauty with no distractions
