ULYSSES AND THE SIRENS /1909/ by HERBERT JAMES DRAPER.

Odysseus (Ulysses in Roman mythology) is a hero in Homer's epic poem. He encountered the dreaded Sirens while he was on his return journey from the Trojan War. In ancient Greek mythology, Sirens were creatures, part woman and part bird, inhabiting an island along the strait between Italy and Sicily.

Sirens lured sailors to their doom with their bewitching singing voices. Odysseus heeded the goddess Circe's advice and made his crew plug their ears and tie him to the ship's mast. He ordered them not to untie him no matter what he said. As they got to the island, Odysseus got enchanted by the Siren's voices; he pleaded with his men to free him, but they ignored his cries. Fortunately, they got passed the island without any fatalities, proceeding with their journey home.

In Draper's painting, Ulysses is tied to the mast, completely drawn to the Sirens' seductions. Ancient Greek depictions of the Sirens were scary, ugly bird-like creatures, Draper paints beautiful mermaids invading Ulysses' ship, a rather interesting approach. The Sirens are nude or nearly nude, with their tails disappearing as they climb aboard.

The painting's portrayal of the Sirens coincides with other Victorian and Edwardian era artwork, a clear "femme fatale" archetype. I like how Draper maintains the spirit of the story by transferring the Sirens' allure from their song to their visible form.
