The Meeting between Venus and Aeneas, c. 1678
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating pen and ink drawing by Claude Lorrain that transports us to the realm of mythology. This exquisite artwork, measuring 24.5x31.8 cm, showcases Lorrain's mastery in capturing both the grandeur of landscape and the intimacy of human interaction. In this scene from Virgil's epic poem "Aeneid" we witness the fateful encounter between Venus, the goddess of love, and Aeneas, her son who is destined to found Rome. The artist skillfully depicts a lush hunting ground as the backdrop for their meeting, blending elements of baroque and neoclassical styles. Lorrain's meticulous attention to detail brings life to every stroke on paper – from the hunters engaged in their pursuit to the mythical figures conversing at its center. Through his preparatory study, he captures not only their physical presence but also conveys a sense of poetic narrative within this mythological realm. The drawing serves as an exploration into utopian ideals and ancient myths while paying homage to classical literature. It invites viewers into a world where gods walk among mortals and destiny unfolds before our eyes. This print from "The Devonshire Collections" at Chatsworth House allows us access to Lorrain's profound artistic vision. With permission granted by Chatsworth Settlement Trustees, we can now appreciate this French masterwork that continues to inspire awe centuries after its creation.
