EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of Joseph Mallord William Turner's masterpiece, "The Lake of Avernus, Aeneas, the Cumaean Sybil". Painted in 1814-15 with oil on canvas, this artwork is housed at the Yale Center for British Art as part of the esteemed Paul Mellon Collection. In this particular section of the painting, we are transported into a mythical world where Greek myth and breathtaking landscape converge. The scene depicts Aeneas, a legendary hero from Virgil's epic poem "The Aeneid" alongside the Cumaean Sybil. They stand by the enchanting Lake of Avernus, known in ancient mythology as an entrance to the underworld. Turner's masterful brushstrokes bring forth a sense of ethereal beauty and mystery. The play between light and shadow creates an otherworldly atmosphere that draws viewers deeper into this realm of fantasy. The artist skillfully captures both human figures amidst nature's grandeur. "The Lake of Avernus" exemplifies Turner's romantic landscape style that was prevalent during the 19th century. His ability to blend historical narratives with sublime landscapes makes him one of Britain's most celebrated painters. Ghigo Roli has expertly captured this remarkable detail through his lens, allowing us to appreciate every intricate brushstroke and immerse ourselves in Turner's artistic vision. This print serves as a testament to both Turner's genius and Roli’s talent in capturing fine art photography
