Celui-ci le n° 23 signé par Braque. Tirage unique - Conservé en parfait état. - Note historique : En 1931, Braque illustre la Théogonie du poète grec Hésiode (VIIe siècle av. J.-C) pour le marchand, éditeur et passionné de gravure, Ambroise Vollard. Le récit, consacré à la naissance de l’univers et à l’origine des dieux, est considéré comme l’un des grands textes de la mythologie grecque. Entre 1932 et 1935, l’artiste exécute une série de seize eaux-fortes qui seront publiées par Maeght en 1955 : ligne noire imprimée sur fond blanc pour les gravures et, en négatif, ligne blanche découpée sur fond noir pour les plâtres peints et gravés que Braque crée en parallèle. Comme les figures mythologiques et les natures mortes de l’époque, ces œuvres possèdent un style curvilinéaire et propice à la métamorphose.

Reprint of 1931 edition. ; The Garland Library of Latin Poetry; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 284 pages; "Epyllion" is the term coined by modern scholars for a relatively short poem on a mythological theme otherwise appropriate to longer epic. One of its recurrent characteristics is "ekphrasis", the telling of one myth encapsulated within the context of another, and the two thematically or symbolically linked to offer subtle comparison and contrast. The most persistent modes of "ekphrasis" are narrative by a character form, or the description of myth depicted on a work of art used in the context of the "outer" myth. The phenomenon has its origins in Homeric epic (the shield of Achilles) but was refined in the Hellenistic period by Callimachus and Theocritus, and taken up by the neoterics (Catullus 64). Its methods were absorbed back into long epic and form a dominant characteristic of Ovid's interweaving of myths in the "Metamorphoses". This book was originally published in 1931, and presents a chronological account of "epyllion" in English.
