EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the renowned epic poem "The Aeneid" by Virgil, specifically depicting an enchanting moment from the story of Vulcan and the Cyclopes. In this illustration, created by Bartolomeo Pinelli in 1879, we witness Venus beseeching her husband Vulcan to forge new armor for their son Aeneas. Eagerly responding to his wife's request, Vulcan directs the mighty Cyclopes to commence their work within his subterranean workshop. These Cyclopes, depicted here with two eyes instead of their traditional single eye, are portrayed as formidable beings possessing immense strength and exceptional blacksmithing skills. Reverend Alfred J. Church skillfully brings this ancient tale to life through his written adaptation titled "Stories From Virgil" which was accompanied by these stunning illustrations. Published in London by Seeley, Jackson & Halliday in 1879, this remarkable print showcases not only the artistic prowess of Bartolomeo Pinelli but also provides a glimpse into Roman mythology and literature. The intricate details and vivid colors transport viewers into a world where gods and mortals intertwine. As we admire this extraordinary artwork captured by whitemay from Fine Art Storehouse, we can't help but be captivated by the rich narrative unfolding before our eyes—a testament to both human creativity and timeless storytelling that continues to inspire generations even today.
