EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment from "The Iliad" - Agamemnon, the mighty Greek warrior, donning his armor while standing alongside the Goddess of Discord. Engraved by George Percy Jacomb-Hood, this artwork is part of a private collection and was originally created for "The Boys Iliad" by Walter Copland Perry. In this illustration, Agamemnon stands tall and resolute in his intricate plate armor, ready to lead his army into battle during the Trojan War. The attention to detail in depicting traditional armoured clothing is remarkable, showcasing the craftsmanship and skill required to create such protective gear. Standing beside him is the Goddess of Discord, her presence adding an air of tension and conflict to the scene. As one of Homer's most intriguing characters, she symbolizes chaos and strife that often accompanies war. Her inclusion highlights both the physical battles taking place on the battlefield as well as those fought within human hearts. This engraving transports us back in time to ancient Greece when epic poems like "The Iliad" were revered for their storytelling prowess. It serves as a reminder of our rich historical past and offers insight into military strategies employed during that era. Whether you are a history enthusiast or simply appreciate fine artistry, this print brings together elements of mythology, warfare, and artistic talent in a way that captivates viewers' imagination.
