EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph depicts the dramatic scene of Entellus killing the bull, a powerful image that transports us back to ancient times. The artwork, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, is part of a private collection and showcases the enduring influence of classical mythology. Entellus killing the bull is an illustration from Stories from Virgil by Alfred J Church, published in 1882. This print captures a pivotal moment in this epic tale as Entellus bravely confronts and defeats the formidable beast. The intensity of the scene is heightened by vibrant colours and intricate details that bring this mythological story to life. The Aeneid, written by Publius Vergilius Maro (Virgil), serves as inspiration for this gripping narrative. As one of Rome's most celebrated poets during Augustan period, Virgil masterfully weaves together elements of Latin classics with his own poetic genius. This artwork not only pays homage to ancient stories but also invites viewers to explore themes such as heroism, sacrifice, and triumph over adversity. It serves as a reminder that these timeless tales continue to captivate audiences across generations. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece through their Fine Art Finder collection, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty and significance. Through its vivid portrayal and rich symbolism, Entellus killing the bull reminds us why classical myths remain relevant today – they are windows into our shared human experience throughout history.
