EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense moment of "Apollo Slaying Coronis" a masterpiece painted by Johann Zoffany in 1759. The oil on canvas artwork, measuring 56x49 cm, is currently held in a private collection. In this mythological scene, Apollo, the Greek god of music and poetry, is depicted slaying his lover Coronis. The tragic tale unfolds as Coronis betrays Apollo by falling in love with another suitor. Filled with rage and heartbreak, Apollo takes matters into his own hands and ends her life. Zoffany's impeccable brushwork brings this ancient myth to life. The composition portrays two sweethearts torn apart by betrayal and the consequences that follow. With meticulous attention to detail, he captures the raw emotions of both characters - sorrow etched upon Coronis' face while determination radiates from Apollo's gaze. The painting delves into themes of love, death, and mythology within pagan beliefs prevalent during that era. It offers viewers a glimpse into polytheistic religions where gods were not only powerful but also deeply intertwined with human affairs. As you admire this remarkable piece through Bridgeman Images' lens, let it serve as a reminder of the enduring power myths hold over our collective imagination throughout history.
