The Apotheosis of Virgil
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning jasperware plaque created by the renowned artist John Flaxman in 1776. This piece, now housed at the Harris Museum and Art Gallery in Preston, Lancashire, UK, showcases Flaxman's exceptional talent for sculpting intricate reliefs. In this neo-classical masterpiece, we witness the elevation of Virgil to divine status. The relief depicts a circular composition with gods and goddesses surrounding the central figure of Virgil himself. Each character exudes grace and power as they pay homage to the great poet. Flaxman's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork. The delicate blue and white color palette adds an ethereal quality to the scene, enhancing its otherworldly atmosphere. The figures' flowing drapery further emphasizes their divine nature while creating a sense of movement within the composition. This exquisite print captures not only Flaxman's artistic genius but also his deep respect for classical mythology and literature. By immortalizing Virgil through his artistry, he pays tribute to one of history's greatest poets while elevating him to mythical proportions. As you gaze upon "The Apotheosis of Virgil" allow yourself to be transported into a world where gods walk among mortals and poetry holds immense power. Let this remarkable piece ignite your imagination and inspire you with its timeless beauty.
