"Not Unobserv'd They Pass'd The God Of Light" (c. 1794) is an exquisite neoclassical artwork by the renowned British sculptor and draughtsman John Flaxman. This piece is part of Flaxman's celebrated series of illustrations for Alexander Pope's translation of Homer's "Iliad," which were commissioned by the publisher John Boydell. Flaxman's illustrations are widely acclaimed for their clarity, simplicity, and adherence to classical ideals, which marked a significant departure from the more ornate and elaborate styles that preceded them.

John Flaxman (1755–1826) was a pivotal figure in the neoclassical movement, and his works are characterized by their linear precision and classical restraint. His illustrations for the "Iliad" and "Odyssey" are particularly notable for their innovative use of line drawing, which eschews the heavy shading and intricate details common in earlier works. Instead, Flaxman employed a minimalist approach that emphasized the purity of form and the emotional intensity of the scenes depicted.

"Not Unobserv'd They Pass'd The God Of Light" captures a moment from the epic poem where the characters are under the watchful gaze of Apollo, the god of light. Flaxman's interpretation of this scene is marked by its elegant composition and the fluidity of its lines, which convey a sense of movement and divine presence. The figures are rendered with a grace and poise that reflect Flaxman's deep understanding of classical art and his ability to translate its principles into his own unique style.

Flaxman's work on the "Iliad" illustrations had a profound influence on the visual arts of his time, inspiring a generation of artists and illustrators. His ability to distill complex narratives into clear, impactful images helped to redefine the role of illustration in literature and solidified his reputation as one of the foremost artists of the neoclassical period. "Not Unobserv'd They Pass'd The God Of Light" remains a testament to Flaxman's artistic vision and his enduring legacy in the history of art.
