EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph captures a poignant moment from Virgil's epic poem, "The Aeneid". The scene depicts Aeneas, the hero of the story, mourning over the lifeless body of Lausus. The English School artist skillfully brings to life this tragic encounter between two characters. In this particular illustration, we witness the emotional depth and complexity of Aeneas as he cradles Lausus' body in his arms. The colors used in the lithograph add intensity and drama to the composition, emphasizing the sorrowful atmosphere surrounding them. The artwork is part of a private collection and was created during the 19th century. It originated from Alfred J Church's book titled "The Children's Aeneid" which aimed to retell Virgil's masterpiece in simpler language for younger readers. This print serves as an illustration within that publication. As we delve into this image, we are reminded of how literature has inspired countless artists throughout history. This lithograph not only showcases their talent but also pays homage to one of Rome's most celebrated poets and his enduring work. Bridgeman Images presents us with yet another remarkable piece from their Fine Art Finder collection. Through these prints, they continue to bring art enthusiasts closer to masterpieces like this one – capturing moments frozen in time that resonate with our shared human experiences across centuries.
