EDITORS COMMENTS
Modello for a Ceiling: Diana and the Dead Endymion, the Judgment of Paris, and the Death of Adonis" is a captivating and intricately detailed pen and brown ink drawing with brown wash over black chalk on laid paper, created by the renowned Baroque artist Nicolas Poussin in the 17th century. This masterpiece is a preliminary design for a ceiling decoration, showcasing three iconic stories from Greek and Roman mythology. At the center, the goddess Diana, the huntress, is depicted with her bow and arrow, surrounded by her nymphs and deer. To her left, the Judgment of Paris unfolds, where Paris, the shepherd prince, is seen choosing the most beautiful goddess between Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite, each attempting to bribe him with promises. The right side of the drawing portrays the tragic tale of Adonis' death. The goddess Aphrodite, jealous of Adonis' love for Venus, persuades the boar god, Adonis' enemy, to attack and kill him. This Modello, or preparatory drawing, is a testament to Poussin's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of ancient Greek and Roman mythology. The intricate details, the dynamic composition, and the rich use of color through wash techniques, all contribute to the drawing's captivating allure. This artwork is not only a significant piece of architectural and interior design history but also a stunning representation of the Baroque era's artistic achievements. Originally from France, this drawing is now part of the National Gallery of Art's extensive collection in Washington, D.C. It is a must-see for anyone interested in ancient Greek and Roman culture, mythology, or the history of art. The intricacy and detail of this drawing make it a standout piece, perfect for any art center, gallery, or museum exhibition.
