Publisher's Synopsis

The Sirens Three: A Poem is a work of literature written by Walter Crane and published in 1886. The book is a poem that tells the story of three sirens who lure sailors to their deaths with their beautiful singing voices. The poem is divided into three parts, each one focusing on a different siren and her seductive powers. The first siren is depicted as a beautiful woman who sings of love and passion. The second siren is a fierce warrior who sings of battles and conquests. The third siren is a wise and learned scholar who sings of knowledge and wisdom. Throughout the poem, the sailors are warned of the dangers of the sirens' songs, but they cannot resist their allure. The book is illustrated with stunning and intricate drawings by Crane, who was known for his work in the Arts and Crafts movement. The Sirens Three is a classic work of poetry and art that explores themes of temptation, desire, and mortality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
