Created in 1819 as part of the Liber Studiorum series, this piece beautifully captures the essence of ancient Greek mythology. In this scene, we are transported to an enchanting landscape where Aesacus, a Trojan prince from Greek mythology, is depicted alongside Hesperie. The etching skillfully portrays their tender connection amidst a backdrop of lush trees and a flowing river.
