EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Laocoon (colour litho)" by an English School artist from the 19th century. Held in a private collection, this piece is a visual representation of one of the most iconic stories from Virgil's epic poem, "The Aeneid". The image transports us back to ancient times, immersing us in the world of classical mythology and literature. Laocoon, a central figure in this tale, stands at the forefront with his muscular physique and pained expression. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to every intricate detail. As we delve into the story behind this masterpiece, we are reminded of its significance within Augustan literature. Publius Vergilius Maro, better known as Virgil or Vergil, crafted an enduring narrative that has captivated readers for centuries. This particular scene depicts Laocoon's tragic fate as he tries to warn his fellow Trojans about accepting the infamous Trojan Horse. Through this photo print, we can appreciate not only the artistic skill employed by the English School artist but also their ability to capture such a pivotal moment in Roman history and mythology. It serves as a testament to how these timeless tales continue to inspire and resonate with audiences today.
