EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in the ancient mythological tale of Aeneas. Painted by Giovanni Battista Carlone between 1633 and 1666, this fresco titled "Juno asks Aeolus to prevent Aeneass travel" showcases the artist's incredible talent and attention to detail. The scene depicts Juno, the queen of gods, pleading with Aeolus, the god of wind, to hinder Aeneas' journey. With vibrant colors and intricate brushwork, Carlone brings this mythical encounter to life on the walls of Palazzo Negrone in Genoa, Italy. Intriguing elements such as a majestic peacock and various animals add depth and symbolism to the composition. The presence of Mars (Ares) and Hera (Junon), two prominent mythological characters watching over the scene further enhances its significance. This artwork not only exemplifies Carlone's mastery but also reflects themes of war, mythology, and natural elements prevalent during that period. Its historical value is undeniable as it offers a glimpse into Italian art from the seventeenth century. Luisa Ricciarini has beautifully captured this stunning piece through her lens while preserving its essence for future generations. As we admire this print today, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary moment in Greek mythology depicted with skillful craftsmanship.
