About This Design

Oedipus and the Sphinx by Gustave Moreau Hip Flask

Oedipus and the Sphinx by Gustave Moreau Hip Flask

Oedipus and the Sphinx, an 1864 oil painting by Gustave Moreau, depicts the scene from Sophocles' tragedy Oedipus Rex where the young ruler must answer the Riddle of the Sphinx lest he be torn apart and eaten by the malevolent, mythological beast. The Sphinx, with the body of a lion, wings of an eagle and head of a woman, pounces upon her prey and stares into his eyes in anticipation. Moreau's classical figuration draws upon the arts of the archaic periods of pre-Classical Greece as well as the Classical, with great influence of the Mediaeval, Renaissance and 19th century neo-Classical masters. Gustave Moreau exhibited with great success in the late 19th century French Salon, and later became a professor at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Paris. His noteworthy students included the Modernist Fauve painters Matisse, Albert Marquet, and Georges Rouault. Moreau’s work has much in common with classical 19th century French painters such as Ingres and Delacroix, but he is usually considered part of the French Symbolist movement for his literary, archaic classical style and religious and mythological subject matter.

Arrived fairly fast considering the current delays. I am very happy with my personalized purchase. The printing looks so cool I was a bit worried at first thinking it would be raised but it is exactly what I wanted.

Well made flask, a little better than I had expected. Flask came in clear plastic box which gave it a nice presentation when I took it out of the zazzle packaging. Image is not printed on flask but on sticker. Don't know how this will hold up I haven't used it yet. This would make a Great gift! I plan to purchase more for friends! Cheers. I thought a little brighter than computer. Very crisp, writing wasn't really Black Black. It might have been the font though, her leopard dolman sleeve top has black and it was perfect.

This flask is my favorite Zazzle order this Christmas. It turned out beautifully and looks like real vintage snake oil. The printed is perfect. The design is centered exactly on the flask the way it should be and it's very vibrant.
