EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Odyssee d Homere: Ulysses playing the trap of the song of the mermaids" takes us on a journey through Greek mythology.

In this scene, we witness Odysseus, also known as Ulysses, navigating his boat past the enchanting yet treacherous sirens. As he sails through their territory, these mythical creatures attempt to lure him with their mesmerizing songs. However, Ulysses remains steadfast and determined to resist their temptation. The artist beautifully captures this moment of suspense and danger. The vibrant colors used in Stefano Bianchetti's engraving bring life to the scene while highlighting the contrast between Ulysses' stoic expression and the alluring presence of the sirens.
