EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the renowned moment from Racine's classic tragedy, "Iphigenie en Aulide" (Iphigenia in Aulis), first performed in 1675. The play, written by the celebrated French poet and playwright Jean Racine, tells the story of Iphigenia, the daughter of King Agamemnon, who is sacrificed to appease the gods and allow the Greek army to set sail for the Trojan War. In this scene, Achilles, portrayed here with a determined expression and clenched fist, stands before King Agamemnon and demands that Iphigenia be spared. Racine's masterful use of language and character development brought new depth to the ancient Greek myth, and "Iphigenie en Aulide" remains a seminal work in the history of Western theatre. The play's exploration of themes such as sacrifice, duty, and the human cost of war resonated deeply with audiences of the time and continues to captivate readers and theatre-goers today. This print, with its intricate details and evocative imagery, offers a glimpse into the rich history of French literature and the enduring power of Racine's dramatic masterpiece. The interplay of light and shadow, the expressive body language of the characters, and the ornate costumes and setting all serve to transport us back to the world of ancient Greece and the timeless tale of Iphigenie and Achilles.
