Original Watercolor Ship “Spirit of Odysseus” painting by Em Campbell

Bold, brave, cunning, faithful - the legend of Odysseus is full of danger, monsters, temptation, and dramatic triumph, but this piece imagines what life might have looked like if he had lived in an era of civility, simply enjoying sailing the Aegean. "Spirit of Odysseus" encapsulates not his legend, but his longing - a longing to return home to Ithaca, and live in peace.
 
This piece is part of Em Campbell's "Legends" collection, which pays homage to legendary captains of history, literature, and pop-culture. Released Oct. 14, 2024.
Original watercolor painting measuring 2.5x2.5in, in vintage English brass frame. The frame has a touch of tarnish, which adds to the piece’s interest. Watercolor on paper.
