EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic moment from ancient Greek mythology when Venus, injured by Diomedes, returns to Olympus. Painted in 1802 by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, a prominent neoclassical artist of his time, this masterpiece is now housed in the prestigious Art Museum Basel. The scene depicts Venus, the goddess of love and beauty, being wounded during the Trojan War by Diomedes. Despite her injuries, she valiantly ascends back to Mount Olympus on a majestic chariot pulled by celestial beings. The painting beautifully portrays her strength and resilience as she overcomes adversity. Ingres skillfully combines elements of ancient literature with his own artistic interpretation. Inspired by Homer's Iliad, he brings to life this iconic episode where mortals clash with gods amidst the backdrop of Troy's fall. Rendered in oil on canvas with meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors, this artwork exemplifies Ingres' mastery of technique and his commitment to reviving classical themes within contemporary art. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Fine Art Images/Heritage Images collection, we are transported into a world where mythological figures come alive through brushstrokes. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of Greek mythology and its influence on Western art throughout history.
