{"product_id":"ajax-book-watercolour-illustration-sophocles","title":"Ajax Book Watercolour Illustration by Sophocles","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt begins in darkness. Sophocles opens Ajax with Athena and Odysseus speaking quietly outside a tent, and the reader already knows something terrible has happened. This classic literature play holds that dread for its whole length. Ajax rages, then goes silent. Tecmessa weeps and pleads, and the chorus waits with nothing to offer. The mood is heavy and slow, with moments of cold clarity. Even the argument over his burial feels tense. It reads like standing in a camp after a storm. This book watercolour illustration is an edge-to-edge watercolour with the lettering over soft washes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis watercolour illustration of Ajax steps out of the gallery and into the story — soft colour washes behind the title, with crisp lettering emerging through a brushed halo. Romantic, atmospheric, a little dreamy. Book illustration art made for reading nooks, nurseries, and walls that quietly wish they were a library.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✦ Available in three paper finishes: matte, satin, or gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrinted to order on 200gsm museum-grade paper.
