The Wind-god sent a gust from the south
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating color lithograph by Walter Crane, depicting an enchanting moment in Greek mythology. In this mesmerizing artwork, we witness the divine power of Aeolus, the Wind-god, as he unleashes his mighty winds upon ancient Greece. Crane's illustration beautifully captures the essence of this mythical tale from "The Story of Greece" by Mary Macgregor. As Aeolus commands the wind to blow fiercely from the south, we can almost feel its force and hear its howling sound through Crane's masterful brushstrokes. This scene transports us back to a time when gods and goddesses reigned supreme over mortals. The Greeks believed that these powerful deities controlled every aspect of their lives, including natural phenomena like windstorms. Through artistry and imagination, Crane brings this belief to life. As we gaze at this print, our minds wander into ancient Greece - a land steeped in rich history and epic tales. We envision brave warriors battling against adversity while mythological creatures roam freely amidst breathtaking landscapes. "The Wind-god sent a gust from the south" not only serves as an exquisite piece of art but also invites us to delve deeper into Greek mythology and explore its profound influence on Western civilization. It reminds us that these stories continue to captivate our imaginations centuries later and inspire countless works of literature, art, and film today.
