About This Design

The Torture of Prometheus Poster

The Torture of Prometheus Poster

This is a reproduction of Jean-Louis-Cesar Lair's "The Torture of Prometheus" of 1819. Lair was born in 1781 and died at the age of forty-seven. This Neo-classical masterpiece portrays the sufferings of Prometheus whose name means "fore-thought". In Greek mythology Prometheus store fire from the Olympians and gave it to man for he had pity on mankind because of human beings had no physical attributes with which to defend themselves. For this betrayal of the gods, Zeus condemned Prometheus to have his liver torn out by an eagle on a daily basis because his liver would grow back each night. Herakles finally liberated Prometheus from his torture.

I hung this in the stairwell of our house, near some other Renoir pictures. My daughter says it looks like she is looking at her when she walks up the stairs. it's called "The Excursionist", she is holding a walking stick. Renoir was an impressionist, I don't think this is an actual person. The finished framed picture arrived and looks better than the online pic - Beautiful!

Absolutely superb Art Deco poster. The colours are vibrant, sympathetic to the era and perfect for use. I framed it and hung above the entrance to my Art Deco inspired lounge room. Stunning! The print is precise, clear and of an excellent standard. It was cleverly packaged so there wasn’t a blemish or crease. Perfect!
