EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Bernini's masterpiece, "Aeneas and Anchises". The sculpture depicts a powerful scene from Virgil's epic poem, the Aeneid, where Aeneas, the Trojan hero and son of Anchises, carries his elderly father on his back as they escape the burning city of Troy. In this baroque artwork, Gian Lorenzo Bernini skillfully portrays the strength and determination of Aeneas as he navigates through chaos and destruction. The intricate details in the marble sculpture bring life to each character - from Aeneas' muscular physique to Anchises' aged face filled with wisdom and vulnerability. The image evokes a sense of heroism and sacrifice as we witness a son carrying his father to safety amidst war-torn surroundings. It symbolizes not only familial love but also represents the resilience of humanity in times of adversity. Through this photograph taken at Galleria Borghese in Rome, Italy, we are transported into an ancient world where legends were born. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern lives, we can find inspiration from stories passed down through generations. Whether you are familiar with classical mythology or simply appreciate artistry at its finest, this print is sure to captivate your imagination. Let it transport you back in time to witness one man's heroic journey while honoring his roots and protecting those he holds dear.
