EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail from Domenico Beccafumi's fresco painting, "Friesland: the sacrifice of Codros king of Athens". The scene depicts an intense moment in Greek mythology, where Codros (or Codrus), the king of Athens, learns from an oracle that victory in the war between the Dorians and Athenians would belong to those whose leader is killed. In a selfless act of bravery and sacrifice, Codros chooses to offer himself as the sacrificial lamb. He willingly throws himself into the midst of battle, seeking death amidst chaos. This powerful image showcases his determination and courage as he fights valiantly for his people. Beccafumi's masterful brushstrokes bring this mythological tale to life with vibrant colors and intricate details. The viewer can almost feel the tension in the air as they witness this pivotal moment unfold on canvas. Located within Italy's Palazzo Pubblico in Siena, this artwork serves as a reminder of ancient legends that continue to captivate our imaginations. It speaks to themes such as honor, leadership, and ultimate sacrifice for a greater cause. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captures this exquisite detail through her lens, allowing us to appreciate Beccafumi's artistry even further. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary event from Greek mythology—a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with stories that transcend generations.
