EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artistic prowess of Charles Pierre Joseph Normand, depicting the legendary hero Achilles playing the lyre. Measuring 36x32 cm, this pen and ink masterpiece is housed in the Bibliothèque Paul-Marmottan, Ville de Boulogne-Billancourt, Académie des Beaux-Arts in France. In this scene from Greek mythology, Achilles is portrayed as a skilled musician while seated. His muscular frame and formidable weapons are juxtaposed with his delicate handling of the musical instrument. The monochrome palette adds a timeless quality to the artwork, emphasizing its classical nature. The composition also includes various vessels and jugs surrounding Achilles, providing an intriguing glimpse into his surroundings. As a male warrior known for his bravery on the battlefield, it is fascinating to see him engaged in a more peaceful activity. Normand's meticulous attention to detail brings out every nuance of Achilles' character - from his focused expression to the intricate patterns on his shield. This drawing captures both strength and vulnerability within one image. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of art history through their fine art print collection. It serves as a testament to Normand's talent as well as an enduring representation of one of Greek mythology's most revered heroes: Achilles.
