EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of "Sacrifice of Iphigenia" by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, we are transported to ancient Greece, where a tragic scene unfolds. The painting depicts the moment when Artemis, the Greek goddess of hunting, oversees the preparations for the sacrifice of Iphigenia, daughter of Agamemnon. The atmosphere is heavy with anticipation and fear as a large crowd gathers under a cloudy sky. Tiepolo's masterful use of color and composition creates a solemn and somber mood. We see Iphigenia seated in distress, her family surrounding her with anguish etched on their faces. The artist skillfully captures both malevolent and solicitous gazes from spectators observing this heart-wrenching event. The painting evokes a sense of waiting and expectation as nightfall approaches. As we gaze upon this Rococo masterpiece, we cannot help but feel the weighty tragedy that hangs in the air. It serves as a reminder of the cruel fate that befalls mortals at times in Greek mythology. Through his artistry, Tiepolo brings forth themes such as sacrifice, misfortune, and human vulnerability. This mid-18th-century work not only showcases Italian artistic excellence but also offers us an insight into ancient Greek culture and its mythological beliefs. As we contemplate this powerful image from our vantage point at the University of Arizona Museum of Art in Tucson, Arizona USA. , it serves as a testament to Tiepolo's ability to capture raw emotion through his brushstrokes - leaving us captivated by its timeless beauty even centuries later.
