EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James O. Davies showcases the exquisite beauty of the Wrest Park garden statue, located in Bedfordshire's historic Wrest Park House and Gardens. The late 18th-century masterpiece, crafted by renowned sculptor John Cheere, depicts a mesmerizing scene from ancient mythology - Aeneas and Anchises. In this particular detail captured at an oblique angle, we are transported to a world of myth and legend. The statue stands tall against a backdrop of vibrant blue skies, its intricate details brought to life through expert craftsmanship. Every curve and contour is meticulously carved, revealing the skill and artistry that went into creating this remarkable sculpture. Aeneas, the Trojan hero who played a significant role in Virgil's epic poem "The Aeneid" is depicted alongside his father Anchises. Their intertwined figures exude strength and determination as they embark on their fateful journey. As we gaze upon this photograph print from Historic England, we cannot help but marvel at how time has preserved such an extraordinary piece of history. It serves as a testament to both the talent of John Cheere and the enduring legacy of classical mythology. This image invites us to appreciate not only the physical beauty captured within its frame but also the rich cultural heritage that lies behind it. It reminds us that art has always been an integral part of human expression throughout history – transcending time itself with its ability to captivate our imagination for generations to come.
