EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the mythical scene of Ascanius shooting the stag of Sylvia, beautifully captured by Claude Lorrain in the late 17th century. The intricate pen and ink with wash technique brings to life this epic moment from ancient mythology. The composition is set against a breathtaking rural landscape, showcasing Lorrain's mastery in depicting nature. With meticulous attention to detail, he portrays the legendary stag as it gracefully leaps through the remote wilderness. Ascanius stands poised with his bow and arrow, embodying both strength and determination as he takes aim at his prey. Lorrain's drawing serves as a preparatory study for a larger work, demonstrating his commitment to capturing every nuance before creating a final masterpiece. This neoclassical piece reflects influences from classical poetry and Roman history, transporting viewers back to an era of mythological tales and heroic feats. Ascanius shooting the stag of Sylvia holds significant symbolism within its narrative. It represents not only hunting prowess but also explores themes of war, kingship, and utopia. Drawing inspiration from Virgil's Aeneid and Claudian's Latin poem "De Raptu Proserpinae". Lorrain skillfully weaves together elements from various sources to create a harmonious visual representation.
