The Judgement of Paris
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of an ancient mythological tale. This stunning artwork, taken from "The Childrens Hour: Stories from the Classics" published by the Waverley Book Company, transports us to a world where gods and goddesses walk among mortals. In this image, we witness a pivotal moment as three powerful goddesses stand before Paris, a shepherd tasked with deciding who among them is the most beautiful. The male figure kneels on one knee while holding in his hand the golden apple of Eris, also known as the apple of discord. Each goddess presents herself adorned in magnificent robes and symbols representing their unique powers. Athena stands tall with her spear and shield, exuding wisdom and strength. Juno radiates regality with her majestic peacocks and protective aegis draped over her arm. Venus captivates with her enchanting beauty and sensuality. As they await Paris' decision on who deserves this coveted prize, clouds float above them against a breathtaking mountainside backdrop. The composition perfectly captures both the grandeur of these mythical beings and their connection to nature. This illustration beautifully brings to life one of mythology's most famous beauty contests while showcasing Charles Edmund Brock's artistic talent. It serves as a reminder that even gods are not immune to vanity or desire for recognition—a timeless theme that continues to resonate today.
