EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving by Giovanni Antonio Sasso, titled "Battle over the Corpse of Patroclus outside Troy," depicts an epic scene from the Trojan War. The image captures the intensity and chaos of the battlefield, as Greek and Trojan warriors clash over the naked corpse of Patroclus, who had been mistakenly killed by Achilles in the guise of his friend Hector. In the foreground, the heroic figures of Menelaus and Ajax can be seen shielding the body from the relentless attacks of their enemies. Above them, the gods of the earth, sky, and sea watch from their celestial thrones, their expressions conveying a sense of awe and disapproval at the senseless violence unfolding below. The sun and moon cast their light upon the scene, illuminating the beautiful cities and fields of Troy and Greece in the background. The illustration offers a glimpse into the rich and varied costumes of ancient and modern peoples, as depicted in Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World." The scene is filled with intricate details, from the straight, horned cattle and sheep grazing in the fields, to the young men and women dancing and picking grapes in the vineyard. The great stream that winds its way through the landscape adds a sense of tranquility and continuity amidst the turmoil of war. This stunning work of art not only captures the essence of the Trojan War and its iconic characters, but also offers a glimpse into the fashion, history, and culture of ancient civilizations. It is a beautiful and enduring testament to the power and complexity of human history.
