EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable design for the chariot of Phaeton in an opera by Lully. Created by Jean I Berain, the Elder, this brown ink and wash on paper artwork is held at the Centre Historique des Archives Nationales in Paris, France. The image depicts a grandiose machine designed for Phaeton's chariot, which was featured in a tragic musical performance presented by the Academie Royale de Musique before King Louis XIV at Versailles on January 6th, 1683. The drawing is part of the Recueil des Menus Plaisirs du Roi collection. With intricate details and meticulous craftsmanship, Berain captures the essence of rashness and folly that led to Phaeton's downfall. This theatrical masterpiece combines elements of music, theatre, and machinery to create an immersive experience for its audience. Symbolizing hubris and recklessness through its depiction of the sun as well as other motifs from Greek mythology surrounding Phaeton's ill-fated journey across the sky, this design transports us back to the vibrant world of 17th-century French culture. As we admire this exquisite piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of how art has always been intertwined with storytelling and entertainment throughout history.
