Façades #18
The eighteenth entry in Éditions Polystyrène's elegant Collection Façades series, Océanide presents a striking deep-green cover by Cy featuring a neoclassical doorway flanked by two caryatid figures — female statues serving as architectural columns — with a bearded, wave-haired face gazing from the pediment above and lush plantings framing the steps below. The whole composition is rendered in warm golden linework against that rich forest green, giving it the feel of an engraving pulled from an ancient architectural treatise. It's a quietly arresting addition to a series that finds real storytelling potential in the faces buildings show the world.
