EDITORS COMMENTS
This pen and ink print, titled "Bellerophon and the Chimaera" transports viewers back to ancient Greek mythology. Created by Inigo Jones in 1609, this artwork is a scene from the Masque of Queens written by Ben Jonson. The Devonshire Collections at Chatsworth house this remarkable piece. The image depicts Bellerophon, a heroic figure in Greek mythology, valiantly slaying the fearsome Chimera. With its fantastical elements and theatrical design, this drawing captures the essence of courtly entertainment during the Stuart era. Intricately detailed armor adorns Bellerophon as he brandishes his spear with determination. His elaborate dress showcases Renaissance fashion while exuding an air of warrior-like elegance. The artist's skillful rendering brings out every mesh size on his plate armor, highlighting traditional armoured clothing worn by soldiers of that time. The monstrous creature known as the Chimera stands before him, embodying both terror and fascination. This fabulous animal with its monstrous character adds a touch of wonder to this dramatic portrayal. Jones' mastery lies not only in capturing mythical scenes but also in creating an atmosphere that draws viewers into another world entirely. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder reproduced with permission from Chatsworth Settlement Trustees, we are transported to a realm where heroes clash with beasts in epic battles for glory and virtue prevails over evil forces.
