EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the epic scene of The Trojans repulsing the Greeks, a momentous event from ancient Greek mythology. Created by Giovanni Battista Scultori (called Mantovano) in 1538 after Giulio Romano, this copper engraving captures the heroic struggle between the two legendary civilizations.
The intricate details and dynamic composition bring to life the mythological characters such as Aeneas, Anchises, Odysseus, and other iconic figures from Homer's Iliad and Virgil's Aeneid. The Trojan Horse looms ominously in the background, symbolizing treachery and deceit amidst the chaos of war.
Through his masterful technique and skillful execution, Scultori pays homage to the rich tradition of Renaissance art while infusing it with his own unique style. The dramatic intensity of the battle scene is palpable, drawing viewers into a world where gods and mortals collide in a timeless struggle for power and glory.
This exquisite print serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of classical literature and mythology, inspiring awe and admiration for centuries to come. It is a testament to the artistic genius of Scultori and his ability to capture both beauty and brutality in one mesmerizing image.
