The Discovery of Achilles among the Daughters of Lykomedes, c. 1618
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Peter Paul Rubens that showcases his mastery in capturing both the beauty and drama of ancient Greek mythology. In this 28.5x26 cm panel, we are transported to the island of Skyros, where Achilles was hidden as a young boy to protect him from participating in the Trojan War. The scene unfolds with an air of intrigue as Ulysses and Diomedes arrive on the island disguised as merchants. Their mission: to uncover Achilles' true identity and recruit him for battle. As they present their wares before King Lykomedes and his daughters, one can almost feel the tension building. Rubens skillfully portrays each character's emotions through their expressions and body language. The female figures are draped in flowing garments that add elegance and grace to the composition while emphasizing their vulnerability against these unexpected visitors. The use of light is particularly striking in this piece, with a celestial glow illuminating Achilles amidst a darkened background. This technique not only highlights his heroic presence but also symbolizes his destiny as a legendary warrior. "The Discovery of Achilles among the Daughters of Lykomedes" serves as both an exquisite study in Baroque artistry and a testament to classical storytelling at its finest. It invites viewers into an ancient world filled with mythological heroes, intricate narratives, and timeless beauty – all captured within this remarkable bozzetto by Rubens at Fitzwilliam Museum
