EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Iris appearing to Turnus" takes us back in time to the ancient world of Roman mythology. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this colour lithograph is a visual representation of a scene from Virgil's epic poem, the Aeneid. In this moment frozen in time, Iris, the messenger goddess of the rainbow, appears before Turnus. The image beautifully captures her ethereal presence as she communicates with the mortal hero. It is said that Iris was sent by Juno, queen of gods and protector of Carthage, to persuade Turnus to continue fighting against Aeneas during their epic clash for power and love. The artwork belongs to a private collection and was originally published as an illustration for Alfred J Church's book "Stories from Virgil" which was released in 1882. This piece not only showcases exceptional artistic skill but also serves as a reminder of our fascination with classical stories and ancient civilizations. The combination of vibrant colours and intricate details transports us into this mythical realm where gods interacted with mortals on grand scales. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the enduring power and influence that these timeless tales hold over our collective imagination.
