EDITORS COMMENTS
The Judgment of Paris," created by the renowned German painter Albrecht Altdorfer in 1511, is an exquisite allegorical masterpiece that continues to captivate art enthusiasts and scholars alike. This engraving, a testament to Altdorfer's artistic brilliance, depicts the ancient Greek mythological tale of Paris' decision to award the Golden Apple to the most beautiful goddess. The central figure, Paris, is shown in contemplation, bow in hand, as he ponders the decision that would ignite the Trojan War. Surrounding him are the three goddesses - Aphrodite, Athena, and Hera - each attempting to bribe Paris with enticing offers. Aphrodite, represented by the god of love, Cupid, offers Paris the most beautiful woman in the world, Helen, while Athena promises wisdom and power, and Hera offers eternal youth and beauty. The allegorical figures in this engraving are richly detailed, each embodying the essence of their respective deities. The goddesses are depicted with regal grace and poise, while Paris appears uncertain and conflicted. The composition of the print is masterful, with the figures artfully arranged to create a sense of depth and drama. This print is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a glimpse into the artistic school of the early 16th century and the rich cultural heritage of ancient Greece. The Judgment of Paris continues to be an enduring symbol of the human condition, exploring themes of desire, temptation, and the consequences of our decisions. Whether displayed in a country home or a grand art centre, this print is a conversation starter and a reminder of the enduring power of art to transport us to another time and place.
