EDITORS COMMENTS
This painting, titled "Orestes, Iphigenia, Pylades, King Thoas and Chorus," depicts a poignant moment from Euripides' tragedy "Iphigenia in Aulis." The scene unfolds in the ancient city of Aulis, where Orestes, disguised as a herald, has arrived to save his sister Iphigenia from sacrifice. Here, we see a thoughtful Orestes, his sister Iphigenia, his loyal friend Pylades, King Thoas, and a chorus of young and old women. The background is graced by a statue of Diana, the goddess of the hunt, with her quiver. The painting, excavated in Resina in 1749, is a beautiful copperplate engraving by Tommaso Piroli from his own "Antichita di Ercolano" (Antiquities of Herculaneum), published in Rome in 1789. This exquisite work of art, a testament to the rich history and classical heritage, transports us back to ancient Greece, allowing us to witness a moment of recognition and reunion between brother and sister. The intricate details, from the folds of their robes to the expressions on their faces, evoke the emotions and tension of the story. This masterpiece is a must-see for anyone with an interest in history, art, or Greek mythology.
