EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning folding fan, believed to be created between 1690 and 1710 by the talented artist Paul Androuet Ducerceau. The fan is adorned with an exquisite heavy ornamental border that adds a touch of grandeur to the overall composition. The focal point of this artwork is the depiction of Dido at the stake, rendered in tempera and India ink. This powerful scene captures the tragic moment from Virgil's epic poem "Aeneid" where Dido, Queen of Carthage, chooses death over living without her beloved Aeneas. The artist masterfully portrays her anguish and determination through delicate brushstrokes and intricate details. Surrounded by the elaborate border, every element in this painting harmoniously comes together to create a visually striking piece. The use of tempera and India ink lends depth and richness to the colors, enhancing its overall impact. This remarkable artwork belongs to Arkheia's Liszt Collection—a treasure trove for art enthusiasts seeking fine art prints that evoke emotion and tell compelling stories. Whether displayed in a museum or gallery setting, this piece will undoubtedly captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and artistic brilliance
