EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the dramatic moment of Aeneas fleeing from the burning city of Troy, as described in Virgil's epic poem, The Aeneid. In this classical and historical scene, we see Aeneas carrying his elderly father Anchises on his back, while leading his young son Ascanius by the hand. Tragically, his wife Creusa is seen behind them, falling victim to the chaos and destruction surrounding them.
The fall of Troy is a pivotal event in ancient mythology and history, symbolizing both the end of an era and the beginning of a new journey for Aeneas and his family. This image beautifully encapsulates the emotions of fear, determination, and sorrow that must have consumed Aeneas as he fled from his beloved city.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly captured this iconic moment with incredible detail and emotion. The composition draws us into the heart-wrenching story of loss and survival that defines Aeneas' legendary escape from Troy.
As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of the enduring power of myth to convey timeless truths about human experience. The bravery and sacrifice depicted here serve as a poignant reminder of our own capacity for resilience in times of crisis.
