The Escape

Artist: John Roddam Spencer Stanhope (English, 1829-1908)

Date: 1900

Medium: Pencil, watercolour and bodycolour

Collection: Private collection

Description

The subject is obscure. The obvious identification when figures, like these, seem to be emerging from Hades, is Orpheus and Euridice, but the male figure here has no lyre, nor would he be carrying Euridice in his arms. Hercules and Alcestis have also been suggested; in Euripides' play, Hercules descends to the underworld to wrestle with Death for Alcestis's body, and then brings her back to her husband, Admetus, on earth. However, the youth in our picture is far from being a muscle-bound superman, and Admetus is conspicuous by his absence.

(The Seymour family has Leber Congenital Amaurosis (LCA), an Inherited Retinal Disorder (IRD). It's a family of congenital retinal dystrophies that results in severe vision loss at an early age. Patients usually present with nystagmus, sluggish or near-absent pupillary responses, severely decreased visual acuity, photophobia, and high hyperopia. It is the most severe retinal dystrophy causing blindness by the age of 1 year in most cases. The white pupil represents who inherited the disorder)
