EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting scene of Tityrus, a goatherd and musician from the 5th century, playing his melodious pipes. The illustration is extracted from Vergil's Bucolics in the Codex Vergilius Romanus, which can be found in the prestigious Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana at Vatican Library. The image captures Tityrus amidst nature's splendor, surrounded by lush greenery and a majestic tree. With his vibrant colored attire contrasting against the serene backdrop, he exudes an air of tranquility while skillfully playing his musical instrument. Tityrus' occupation as a goatherd is evident through the presence of goats grazing nearby. This harmonious coexistence between man and animal symbolizes their interdependence within this pastoral setting. The use of vellum manuscript adds to the authenticity and historical significance of this artwork. It serves as a testament to both Virgil's literary prowess and Tityrus' role as one of his beloved characters. Through this mesmerizing composition, we are transported back in time to witness not only Tityrus' mastery over music but also experience the beauty and serenity that nature provides. This print truly encapsulates how art has transcended centuries to preserve moments like these for us to admire today.
