EDITORS COMMENTS
Dido, the powerful and determined Queen of Carthage, unveils her grand plans for fortifying her city to Aeneas, the Trojan hero. In this tapestry print created by Giovanni Francesco Romanelli in 1679, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in Virgil's epic poem 'The Aeneid. ' Measuring an impressive 416.4x563.6 cm, this exquisite piece is crafted using a combination of silk and wool in a meticulous tapestry weave technique. The attention to detail is evident as every thread brings life to the scene. Dressed in vibrant colors that reflect the baroque style of the era, Dido stands tall with grace and authority while presenting her vision to Aeneas. Surrounding them are columns and colonnades that symbolize strength and stability. As our eyes wander through this artwork, we notice the presence of numerous figures observing this historic exchange. Men donning helmets and visors represent construction workers diligently preparing for the fortifications' implementation. Floral motifs delicately woven into the fabric add a touch of femininity amidst these masculine surroundings. This fusion of elements showcases Romanelli's mastery as an artist. Woven by Michel Wauters before his passing in 1679, this tapestry print captures not only historical significance but also pays homage to Flemish artistry. It serves as a testament to Italy's influence on artistic movements during that time period. Now housed within Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA; it continues to captivate viewers with its grandeur and storytelling prowess.
