This dramatic 19th-century steel engraving portrays the legendary parting of Hero and Leander, a classical tale of love and tragedy. Based on the original painting by British Romantic master J.M.W. Turner (1775–1851), this print exemplifies Turner’s atmospheric style and deep emotion. Engraved by S. Bradshaw, it was likely published as part of a series illustrating notable works from the National Gallery.
Ideal for collectors of mythological engravings, antique Romantic prints, and lovers of Turner’s work, this piece captures the emotional intensity of one of antiquity’s most poetic stories.
