The Judgement of Paris
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and timeless piece captured by Paul Altherr in the early 20th century. This stunning print, now housed in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland, depicts a pivotal moment from Greek mythology. In this scene, we witness Paris, a Trojan prince, faced with an arduous decision. Mercury has tasked him with choosing the most beautiful among three goddesses: Juno, Minerva, and Venus. Each deity offers him a unique gift as an incentive for his choice. Juno promises power; Minerva guarantees success as a warrior; while Venus tempts him with the most beautiful woman on earth - Helen of Troy. Altherr's masterful use of tempera on paper brings this mythological tale to life before our eyes. The composition showcases not only the central figures but also beautifully portrays the surrounding landscape and pastoral elements. This artwork captures both beauty and tension as it explores themes of competition and judgement. It delves into questions of desire and consequence that resonate throughout history. "The Judgement of Paris" serves as a reminder that even gods are not immune to temptation or difficult choices. It invites viewers to ponder their own values when faced with competing desires or conflicting promises. Bridgeman Images presents this exquisite print for art enthusiasts who appreciate classical mythology intertwined with European artistic traditions from centuries past.
