Jason and the Dragon

This work captures the dramatic climax of a hero's quest. In Salvator Rosa's original etching from c. 1663, the hero Jason confronts the dragon guarding the Golden Fleece. This Atelier Edition is a contemporary color interpretation by Surrealium, bringing a new and exclusive vision to the historical monochrome print. It is not a restoration of a lost original, but a modern homage to a Baroque master.

The palette reimagines the scene with warm earth tones, muted olive, and deep slate blue. A brooding, atmospheric light casts the mythological encounter in a restrained amber glow, enhancing the dreamlike and mystical mood. As a fine-art print, it brings a sense of history and drama to a living room, study, or gallery wall, complementing both classic and modern interiors.

This exclusive edition is prepared for print by the Surrealium atelier, located at Kastellet, a 17th-century sea fortress in the Stockholm archipelago. Each piece is made to order as a fine-art print on archival, museum-grade matte paper. This print is available for purchase by all collectors. Further customization of the work's colors is an exclusive benefit for Fable subscribers.
