EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two distinct scenes from Nicolo dell Abate's frescoes depicting the Aeneid, Canto I. The first image, Lunetta 1, reveals three ethereal characters emerging amidst billowing clouds. Their presence evokes a sense of mystery and intrigue, leaving viewers to ponder their significance within the narrative. The second scene captures an iconic moment in Virgil's epic poem - the landing of Aeneas on the coast of Libya. As Aeneas and his companions disembark from their ships onto unfamiliar shores, they are met with both anticipation and trepidation. This pivotal event marks the beginning of their arduous journey towards fulfilling destiny and establishing Rome as a great civilization. Nicolo dell Abate's masterful brushwork brings these ancient tales to life with vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. The frescoes were originally part of the Aeneid Room in Rocca dei Conti Boiardo in Scandiano but now find their home at Galleria e Museo Estense in Modena, Italy. Through this print by Bridgeman Images, art enthusiasts can appreciate not only Dell Abate's artistic prowess but also delve into the rich mythology and historical context surrounding Virgil's renowned work. It serves as a visual gateway into an epic tale that has captivated audiences for centuries while reminding us of our enduring fascination with classical literature and its timeless themes.
