EDITORS COMMENTS
The Judgment of Paris," a captivating masterpiece by the renowned 16th-century German artist Albrecht Altdorfer, is a breathtaking allegorical depiction of the ancient Greek mythological tale. This engraving, created in 1511, showcases a pivotal moment in Greek mythology as Paris, a Trojan prince, is called upon to decide which goddess - Athena, Hera, or Aphrodite - deserves the golden apple inscribed with the phrase "to the fairest." Paris, shown as a young man with a bow and arrow in hand, is surrounded by the three goddesses. Each deity, represented as allegorical figures, employs her most alluring attributes to win Paris' favor. Athena, the goddess of wisdom, offers him the gift of wisdom and victory in battle. Hera, the goddess of marriage and childbirth, tempts him with power and wealth. Aphrodite, the goddess of love, promises him the most beautiful woman in the world. The scene is set against a backdrop of a rural landscape, with mountains, trees, and a serene river, emphasizing the connection between nature and the divine. The composition is masterful, with the figures skillfully drawn and the use of contrasting light and shadow creating depth and dimension. This engraving is a testament to Altdorfer's artistic skill and the enduring appeal of Greek mythology.
