EDITORS COMMENTS
Giacomo del Po's 'Camilla at War from Virgil's Aeneid' (circa 1708-1710) is a stunning oil on copper painting that captures the legendary figure of Camilla, a warrior maiden from ancient Greek and Roman mythology. The painting is based on the epic poem 'Aeneid' by the Roman poet Virgil, which tells the story of the Trojan hero Aeneas and his journey to Italy to found the Roman civilization. Camilla is depicted here in the heat of battle, mounted on horseback and leading her troops into combat. She is a formidable figure, clad in armor and wielding a spear, her face set with determination and resolve. The painting captures the intensity and chaos of the battlefield, with men fighting fiercely around her, horses rearing and men falling. The painting is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of ancient Greece and Rome, and the enduring influence of their mythology on European art and literature. Giacomo del Po, an Italian painter active in the early 18th century, expertly captures the movement and emotion of the scene, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art or mythology. This painting is now on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it is a popular attraction for visitors from around the world. The painting's vibrant colors and intricate details make it a standout piece in the museum's extensive collection of European art, and a reminder of the rich artistic traditions of the past.
