The Shield of Achilles, used in his battle with Hector

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the ancient world of Greek mythology. Created by Angelo Monticelli in the 19th century, this handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the intricate details and artistic prowess of the artist. The shield itself becomes a window into a rich tapestry of scenes and symbolism. From the earth, sky, and sea to celestial bodies like the sun, moon, and constellations - every element is meticulously depicted. Two magnificent cities teeming with life stand proudly on this divine artifact while fields are being ploughed and harvests reaped on a king's estate nearby. As we explore further, we encounter vineyards where grape pickers diligently work alongside herds of straight-horned cattle grazing peacefully on lush pastures. A sheep farm thrives as young men and women joyfully dance to celebrate life's abundance. And amidst it all flows the great stream of Ocean – an embodiment of nature's eternal power. Monticelli's illustration beautifully captures both mythical grandeur and everyday scenes from ancient times. It serves as a testament to humanity's connection with nature, agriculture, artistry, and celebration throughout history. This remarkable print offers us not only a glimpse into Greek mythology but also reminds us of our shared human experiences across time. It invites contemplation about our place within the cosmos while appreciating the beauty found in daily existence.
