EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating woodcut print titled "Coming out into Hell, 1866" takes us on a mythological journey through the depths of the underworld. Designed by Sir Edward Burne-Jones for The Tale of Cupid & Psyche and skillfully cut in woodblock by William Morris, this masterpiece showcases their artistic collaboration. In this scene, we witness a courageous female figure emerging from the desolate realm of Hades. Walking barefoot with determination, she carries a mysterious box upon her back as she navigates the trials that lie ahead. Her profile reveals both strength and vulnerability, embodying the essence of love and resilience. The monochrome composition adds an ethereal quality to the artwork, emphasizing its classical roots and pre-Raphaelite style. Every detail is meticulously crafted to transport viewers into a mythical world where gods and mortals intertwine. As we observe this woman's solitary stroll through hellish landscapes, we are reminded of the timeless themes explored in Roman mythology. This image captures not only her physical journey but also symbolizes an inner quest for self-discovery and enlightenment. This remarkable print invites us to contemplate our own personal journeys through life's challenges. It serves as a visual reminder that even in moments of darkness and despair, there is always hope for redemption and triumph over adversity.
