EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 16th century oil painting, titled "The Judgement of Midas. The Musical Contest between Apollo and Marsyas," is a masterpiece by the Italian artist Giovanni Battista Cima da Conegliano. The painting, created between 1507 and 1509, depicts a pivotal moment in Greek mythology, where the god Apollo, the sun god and god of music, judges a musical contest against Marsyas, a satyr and a skilled musician. The painting is set outdoors, with a beautiful landscape in the background, showcasing the natural beauty of Italy. Apollo, with his serene expression and radiant aura, sits on a throne, surrounded by a group of men, possibly gods or musicians. Marsyas, a man with the body of a man and the head and ears of a satyr, stands before him, playing his double-piped aulos, a type of ancient Greek wind instrument. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation, as Apollo listens intently to Marsyas' performance, his expression unreadable. The other men in the painting watch with bated breath, their faces expressing a range of emotions from excitement to anxiety. The painting captures the essence of the musical contest, the tension between the two deities, and the excitement of the audience. The use of color and light in the painting is remarkable, with Apollo bathed in a golden glow, symbolizing his divine status, while Marsyas is shrouded in shadow, adding to the dramatic effect. The painting is a testament to Cima da Conegliano's exceptional artistic skills and his ability to bring the mythological world to life. This painting is now part of the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst (The National Gallery of Denmark) in Copenhagen, Denmark, and is a must-see for anyone interested in Renaissance art, Greek mythology, or the works of Cima da Conegliano.
