EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from the medieval era, the renowned Roman poet Publius Vergilius Maro, better known as Virgil, is depicted as a sorcerer, a popular legend that persisted throughout the Middle Ages. Born in 70 BC in Mantua, Italy, Virgil is celebrated as one of the greatest poets in Western literature, famous for his epic works "The Eclogues," "The Georgics," and "The Aeneid." However, in the popular medieval imagination, Virgil's connection to the supernatural was more than just a figment of artistic license. According to legend, he was believed to possess extraordinary powers, including the ability to communicate with the dead and to cast spells. This belief may have arisen from the mystical elements found in his poetry, as well as from the association of poets and magicians in the medieval worldview. In this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, Virgil is shown with a book in one hand and a wand in the other, surrounded by symbols of magic and the occult. His grave, marked by a cross and a skull, is visible in the background, further emphasizing his connection to the afterlife. The dark, moody atmosphere of the image adds to the sense of mystery and intrigue surrounding the figure of Virgil as a sorcerer. Despite the popular legend, there is no historical evidence to support the claim that Virgil was a practicing magician. However, the enduring image of the Roman poet as a sorcerer speaks to the power of myth and the enduring fascination with the supernatural in human culture. This print is a captivating reminder of the complex and multifaceted nature of historical figures, and the ways in which they can be reimagined and reinterpreted through the lens of popular legend.
