Camilla and the Son of Aunus - An Epic Encounter from Ancient Mythology
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a vivid scene from ancient mythology, depicting Camilla and the son of Aunus in a mesmerizing color lithograph. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is now part of a private collection. The image originates from "Stories from Virgil" written by Alfred J Church and published in 1882. It beautifully illustrates an episode where Camilla encounters the son of Aunus, adding depth to this timeless story. The epic nature of this encounter reflects the rich heritage of classical literature. Intriguingly, this piece connects us with Latin poet Publius Vergilius Maro (Virgil), who penned the renowned "Aeneid". As one explores this visual representation, it becomes evident that Roman mythology intertwines with Augustan period storytelling. The composition showcases Camilla's strength and bravery as she engages with her counterpart. Their interaction symbolizes not only their individual stories but also larger themes such as heroism and destiny. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork for enthusiasts to appreciate its historical significance.
