EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases a stunning costume design for the character of Paris as a shepherd on Mount Ida. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 18th century, this colour lithograph captures the essence of ancient Greece and its rich theatrical history. The image depicts Paris, son of King Priam, standing proudly amidst his flock of sheep on the majestic Mount Ida. Dressed in traditional Greek attire, he exudes an air of confidence and charm. The intricate details of his costume highlight the meticulous craftsmanship that went into its creation. As we delve into Greek mythology, we are reminded of the significant role Paris played in one of its most famous tales - The Judgment of Paris. This legendary event ultimately led to the Trojan War and forever changed the course of history. The backdrop featuring Troy adds depth to this composition, transporting us back to a time when heroes roamed these lands and epic battles were fought. The inclusion of Eris, symbolizing discord and strife, further emphasizes the underlying tension that would eventually consume Troy. With references to Homer's Iliad woven throughout this artwork, it serves as a visual tribute to ancient Greek culture and literature. Its vibrant colors breathe life into each element depicted within it. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both historical significance and artistic brilliance simultaneously – truly capturing our imagination with every glance.
