EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite tapestry titled "Venus tells Aeneas and his friend Achates to go to Carthage" created by Giovanni Francesco Romanelli in 1679. The artwork, made from silk and wool, measures an impressive 411.3x294.5 cm and is housed at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. The intricate weaving was skillfully executed by Michel Wauters, whose craftsmanship shines through every detail of this masterpiece. It depicts a legendary scene from Greek mythology where Venus, the goddess of love and beauty, advises Aeneas and his loyal friend Achates to embark on their journey to Carthage. The tapestry's ornate design features pillars adorned with garlands and columns embellished with mythological motifs. Cherubs or putti can be seen hovering around Venus as she imparts her wisdom upon the two heroes. The border showcases Greco-Roman influences with its decorative elements inspired by ancient myths. This stunning textile not only serves as a visual feast but also pays homage to classical legends immortalized in Virgil's epic poem "Aeneid". Its presence adds elegance and grandeur wherever it is displayed. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' photographical expertise, we are able to appreciate this remarkable piece of artistry that seamlessly blends history, mythology, and beauty into one extraordinary creation.
