EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we witness a dramatic moment from Virgil's epic poem, The Aeneid. The image portrays the valiant Aeneas desperately attempting to save the lifeless body of his fallen comrade, Pandarus. However, as fate would have it, Aeneas is struck by a merciless stone hurled by none other than Diomedes. The intensity and raw emotion captured in this scene are palpable. Aeneas' face reflects both determination and anguish as he fights against all odds to honor his fallen ally. Yet, just when hope seems lost, an ethereal figure emerges from the shadows - Venus herself comes to Aeneas' rescue. Venus, the goddess of love and mother to Aeneas, descends upon the battlefield with grace and power. Her divine presence radiates strength as she shields her son from further harm. With her intervention, we witness not only a testament to maternal love but also a reminder that even in times of despair and chaos, there is always hope for salvation. This mesmerizing print encapsulates one of the most pivotal moments in ancient literature - where mortal bravery clashes with divine intervention on a battlefield soaked in bloodshed. It serves as a powerful reminder that even heroes need assistance at times and that love can transcend earthly boundaries.
