EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image depicts Priam, the legendary King of Troy, as described in Homer's epic poem, the Iliad. Reigning from approximately 1237 BC, Priam is a central figure in the Trojan War, a pivotal moment in ancient Greek mythology and history. The Iliad recounts the wrath of Achilles, the mighty Greek warrior, and the tragic events that unfolded during the final year of the decade-long siege of Troy. Priam, a wise and noble ruler, is portrayed as a compassionate and humble father, who, in a desperate attempt to save his city and his son Hector, ventures into the Greek camp under a false pretense. In this image, Priam is shown with a humble and pleading demeanor, his aged face etched with worry and sorrow. He is dressed in royal attire, adorned with a golden crown and a flowing robe, symbolizing his regal status. The background depicts the chaos and destruction of war, with flames engulfing the city and smoke rising into the sky. The Iliad, an enduring masterpiece of classical literature, has captivated readers for over 2,700 years, and this image of Priam serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the enduring power of compassion and empathy. This evocative print, from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of ancient history and mythology, inviting us to explore the complexities of human nature and the timeless themes of love, loss, and redemption.
