EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning fresco en trompe l'oeil titled "La chute de Phaeton (Phaethon)" by Giovanni Battista Carlone. The artwork adorns the ceiling of the hall in an ancient medieval castle dating back to 1320, located in Cagnes-sur-Mer, France. The painting depicts a dramatic scene from Greek mythology where Phaeton, son of the sun god Helios, attempts to drive his father's chariot across the sky but loses control. In this moment of chaos and punishment for his audacity, lightning strikes down upon him as he plummets towards earth. The winged horse Pegasus watches on with a sense of awe and disbelief. Carlone's skillful use of trompe l'oeil technique creates an optical illusion that transports viewers into this mythical world. The celestial background and intricate details bring forth a sense of grandeur and divine intervention. This print captures not only the artistry behind Carlone's masterpiece but also highlights its historical significance within the Chateau-Musee de Cagnes-sur-Mer. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with ancient tales, astrology, and pagan beliefs while showcasing the beauty found in mythological characters such as Phaeton and Pegasus. Overall, this image invites us to delve into a realm where imagination meets reality – where gods punish mortals for their hubris amidst breathtaking artistic mastery.
