EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the legendary founding of Rome by Aeneas, a key figure in ancient Roman mythology and history. According to tradition, Aeneas was a Trojan warrior who survived the devastating Trojan War and, guided by the gods, embarked on a journey to Italy. There, he is said to have founded the city of Lavinium and began the dynasty that would eventually lead to the establishment of Rome itself. The image captures the moment of Aeneas' arrival in Italy, with him standing on the shore, gazing out at the new land before him. The date of this event is not definitively known, but many scholars place it in the 8th or 7th century BCE. The print's intricate details bring to life the rich history and traditions surrounding the founding of Rome, a city that would go on to become one of the most powerful and influential civilizations in world history. Aeneas' journey from Troy to Italy is a central theme in Virgil's epic poem, the Aeneid, which helped to solidify the legend of Aeneas as the founder of Rome. The poem also chronicles the events leading up to the founding of the Roman Republic and the reign of its first king, Romulus, and his twin brother Remus. The dynasty that Aeneas began culminated in the establishment of the Roman Republic, which would last for over 500 years and shape the course of Western civilization. This print is a testament to the enduring power of myth and history, and serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to influence our world today.
