Plate 8 - Ulysses receiving the winds in a leather bag from Aeolus, 1756
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to ancient Greek mythology as we witness a pivotal moment in the epic tale of Ulysses. Created by Bartolomeo Crivellari and Domenico Maria Fratta in the 18th century, this etching and engraving beautifully captures the essence of this legendary story. In this scene, an elderly man with a flowing beard, representing Aeolus, is seen handing over a leather bag filled with powerful winds to Ulysses. The intricate details bring out the emotions on their faces as they engage in this exchange. Ulysses' nakedness symbolizes vulnerability while his determined expression reveals his determination to overcome challenges. The skillful use of shading and lines adds depth to the composition, creating a sense of movement within stillness. This artwork transports us into another time and place where gods and mortals coexist. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece showcases Italian artistry at its finest. It serves as a testament to both Crivellari's mastery of engraving techniques and Fratta's artistic vision. As we gaze upon Plate 8, we are reminded of literature's power to transcend time and connect generations through shared stories. It invites us to delve deeper into Greek mythology while appreciating the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire artists today.
