"Circe: The Enchantress of Myth and Art" Step into the mesmerizing world of Circe, a captivating figure who has fascinated artists throughout history. From ancient Greek vases to modern paintings, her allure knows no bounds. In John William Waterhouse's "Circe Invidiosa" (1892), we witness the power and jealousy that define this enchantress. With a subtle smile on her face, she holds a magical potion, ready to cast her spell upon unsuspecting victims. Odysseus finds himself at the mercy in various artworks. Whether it is taming wild animals or indulging in magic tricks, she exerts control over him. In one painting from c. 1889 by an unknown artist, we see Odysseus surrounded by docile creatures under Circe's watchful gaze. Even advertisements couldn't resist incorporating Circe's allure. A 1906 advert for William Whiteley features women clad in elegant underwear inspired by the enchantress herself. Her seductive charm transcends time and permeates every aspect of culture. Giovanni Andrea Sirani's "Ulysses and Circe" (c. 1650-1660) captures their encounter with intricate detail and emotion. As Ulysses resists transformation into swine, Circe stands tall with an air of authority befitting her status as a sorceress. Mae Murray brings life to the character through her portrayal in film adaptations like "Circe. " Her graceful movements embody both beauty and danger as she weaves spells that enthrall audiences worldwide. Will Dyson's interpretation showcases another facet - vulnerability mixed with strength - reminding us that even mythical figures have layers beyond their magical abilities. Greek vase-paintings dating back centuries depict scenes where Odysseus' crew members are transformed into pigs on Circes Isle – warning against the temptations of her enchantments.
