EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic scene from the Aeneid, Canto VII, depicted in a stunning fresco by Nicolo dell Abate. The artwork, now housed in the Galleria e Museo Estense in Modena, Italy, showcases the artist's mastery of 16th-century art and architecture. In this particular scene, which is Scene 13 of the series, Turnus soldiers launch a fierce attack on the Trojan field. The intensity of battle is palpable as warriors clash and chaos ensues. The artist skillfully portrays the confrontation between these two ancient forces with intricate details and vibrant colors. Originally part of an even larger ensemble known as the Aeneid Room in Rocca dei Conti Boiardo in Scandiano, these detached frescoes have found their new home at Galleria Estense. They offer viewers a glimpse into Nicolo dell Abate's interpretation of Virgil's epic poem. The composition exudes energy and dynamism while showcasing Dell Abate's unique artistic style influenced by Fontainebleau School. This print serves as a testament to both historical events and artistic excellence that continues to captivate audiences centuries later. Whether you are an admirer of Italian Renaissance art or simply fascinated by tales of ancient battles, this print brings together history and aesthetics seamlessly. It offers an opportunity to appreciate Dell Abate's talent while immersing oneself in one of literature's most enduring narratives – Virgil’s Aeneid.
