This vibrant and captivating print titled "Flight of Aeneas" takes us back to ancient times, immersing us in the rich world of Greek mythology. Created by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, this colour lithograph beautifully captures a scene inspired by Greek vase painting. The image depicts Aeneas, a heroic figure from Greek mythology and the founder of Rome, in his momentous flight. With great strength and determination, he is seen carrying his father Anchises on his back while leading a chariot pulled by powerful horses. The composition showcases the artist's skillful attention to detail as every element comes alive with vivid colors and intricate patterns. This artwork not only celebrates classical tales but also pays homage to the historical significance of pottery in ancient Greece. The carefully crafted vases depicted here were not merely vessels for everyday use; they served as canvases for artists to narrate stories through their exquisite paintings.

It serves as a reminder that these timeless stories continue to inspire generations across time and space. Through its fusion of artistry and history, this print offers us an opportunity to delve deeper into our collective cultural heritage while appreciating the beauty found within ancient artifacts.
