EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Tempio di Vesta, a temple dedicated to the goddess Vesta, with her sacred flame burning in front. The image is part of a collection called "Raccolta di varie decorazioni sceniche inventate ed eseguite per il R. Teatro alla Scala di Milano" (Collection of Various Scenic Decorations Invented and Executed for the Royal Theater at La Scala in Milan), created by Giuseppe Castellini, Alessandro Sanquirico, and Salvatore Vigano. The scene depicted here was specifically designed for the tragic ballet "La Vestale" (The Vestal Virgin) and was brought to life on stage at La Scala during the spring of 1818 under the direction of Salvatore Vigano. The hand-colored aquatint technique used in this print adds depth and vibrancy to every detail. In this mesmerizing composition, we are transported back in time to witness an enchanting moment from ancient Roman mythology. The temple stands majestically against a backdrop of lush greenery while Vesta's statue gazes serenely upon her eternal flame. This image captures both the grandeur of classical architecture and the ethereal beauty associated with divine worship. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate historical imagery, this print offers a glimpse into a bygone era when mythological tales were brought to life on stage through breathtaking scenery and masterful storytelling.
