Art on magnets. https://mistysworldboutique.etsy.com Purchases from link give me rewards. ⁣ This is "Nymphs Finding the Head of Orpheus" by John William Waterhouse.⁣ ⁣ Orpheus was a great musician in Ancient Greek mythology. The god Apollo taught him to play the lyre when he was young. He perfected it to the point where his music could charm animals and even make the trees & rocks dance.🎵🌳🪨 Probably like one of those cars with the loud stereos and booming bass that makes windows vibrate and furniture dance when they drive by 🙉.⁣ ⁣ He joined a group called "Jason and the Argonauts". I don't know what kind of music they played, but they're famous for looking for a Golden Fleece. I think that means to fleece someone out of their gold. ⁣ ⁣ They came upon an all-girl band known as the Sirens who had once sang to a whole ship's crew, piloted by a guy named Homer (not Simpson). When the Argonauts met the Sirens, they had a musical contest.🎶 The Sirens sang well, but Orpheus played better and louder, so he and the Argonauts stayed together.⁣ ⁣ Orpheus married a lady named Eurydice. They were happy until one day a rowdy neighborhood satyr chased Eurydice. She tripped and fell into a nest of vipers and died.⁣🐍 ⁣ Orpheus went to the Underworld to try to recover her. He played music so well that Hades consented on the condition they not look back. Upon reaching the world of the living, Orpheus looked back at Eurydice in happiness. But she hadn't quite exited yet, so the deal was broken and she was gone again, forever.⁣ ⁣ Orpheus went around lamenting everywhere, until a wild mob tore him apart, probably in some lawless place like East St Louis.🙀 His head kept singing so the mob did the natural thing under such circumstances. They threw it in the river.⁣ ⁣ In this painting, his head is discovered by a pair of nymphs. Such a thing may be normal today in the Chicago River or the Meadowlands of New Jersey, but it probably wasn't so common in the River Herbrus. They look a bit concerned, maybe because the drinkability of the water is now in question.⁣ ⁣ The head prophesied until the oracle became more famous than Apollo, at which point Apollo told him to knock it off, or to quit while he was a-head.🤦🏼‍♀️

Happy Samhain!
The third volume of "The Library of Esoterica" has just been published by TASCHEN. It focuses on witchcraft and is chock full of images by our favorite painter, John William Waterhouse.
From the TASCHEN website:
A spellbinding journey through the global history of witchcraft, the third volume in The Library of Esoterica follows this magickal tradition from its ancient roots to its modern incarnations. Through more than 400 artworks, and revelatory essays and interviews with modern practitioners, Witchcraft chronicles a cathartic evolution, from the craft’s emergence in ancient goddess worship to the embrace by today’s diverse witch community.
