EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by John Flaxman depicts the triumphant return of Diomed and Ulysses with the spoils of Rhesus. The scene captures a pivotal moment from Homer's epic poem, the Iliad, where these two heroic figures showcase their valor and cunning. Diomed and Ulysses, both renowned chiefs in the Trojan War, stand tall as they bring back the hard-won spoils to their comrades. Their expressions reveal a mix of exhaustion and pride, having overcome countless obstacles to achieve this victory. With every detail etched meticulously by Flaxman's skilled hand, we can almost feel their triumph radiating from the print. The composition is filled with symbolism that speaks volumes about classical literature and its enduring impact on our collective imagination. Nestor, an aged warrior known for his wisdom in Greek mythology, stands nearby as a witness to this remarkable feat. His presence reminds us of the timeless lessons embedded within ancient texts like Homer's Iliad. Flaxman's Classical Outlines served as inspiration for generations who sought to delve into these rich narratives themselves. This particular engraving was featured in John C L Sparkes' edition published in 1885 - a testament to how even then it was recognized as a scarce treasure worth preserving. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection today, we are reminded of the power of art to transport us through time and immerse ourselves in worlds long gone but never forgotten.
