EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Aeneas at Didos palace" takes us back to the enchanting world of ancient mythology. Created by an anonymous European School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a series that beautifully depicts scenes from Virgil's epic poem, Aeneid. In this particular scene, we witness a pivotal moment as Aeneas, the Trojan hero and protagonist of the Aeneid, encounters Queen Dido in her magnificent palace in Carthage. The meeting between these two legendary figures sparks a profound love story that will ultimately shape both their destinies. The print showcases the grandeur of Dido's palace with its ornate throne and opulent surroundings. The attention to detail transports us into this mythical realm where gods and mortals intertwine. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost feel the tension and anticipation building between Aeneas and Dido. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the power of literature to transcend time and bring ancient tales to life. It serves as a visual representation of Virgil's poetic genius while also capturing our imagination with its vibrant colors and intricate composition. This print is not just an artistic masterpiece; it also serves as an educational tool for those interested in Greek mythology or classical literature. Its presence in private collections ensures that future generations can continue to appreciate and learn from these timeless stories passed down through centuries.
