EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Benjamin West's masterpiece, "Aeneas and Creusa". Painted in 1771, this oil on linen artwork measures an impressive 188x142.2 cm and is currently housed in the esteemed collection of the New-York Historical Society in the USA. The scene depicted here is based on Virgil's epic poem, Aeneid, transporting us back to ancient Rome. The painting showcases a poignant moment between Aeneas and Creusa, two central characters from this renowned literary work. With meticulous brushstrokes and vivid colors, West skillfully brings these figures to life. In this composition, we witness a family uniting amidst turmoil. Aeneas stands tall as a noble warrior while his wife Creusa tenderly holds their young son. Their expressions convey both determination and vulnerability as they navigate through challenging times. West's attention to detail transports us into antiquity; every fold of fabric and facial expression tells a story steeped in history. This classical masterpiece not only pays homage to Virgil's timeless tale but also serves as a testament to West's mastery of genre painting. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of the power that art possesses – how it can transcend time and bring ancient stories alive before our very eyes.
