EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Plate 17: Aeneas welcomed by King Euandrus in Italy" takes us back to ancient times. The image, created by Cornelis Galle I in the 17th century, beautifully captures a scene from Greek mythology. In this artwork, we witness the legendary hero Aeneas being warmly received by King Euandrus in Italy. The intricate details and delicate lines bring life to this historical moment as Aeneas arrives at the ancient city. The artist's skillful use of shading creates a sense of depth and adds an ethereal quality to the composition. The print is part of Guillielmus Becanus's collection dedicated to Cardinal Infante Ferdinand of Austria. It showcases not only Galle's talent but also highlights the collaboration between renowned artists during that period. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported into a world where myth intertwines with reality. We can almost feel the anticipation and excitement emanating from both Aeneas and King Euandrus as they meet for the first time. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a testament to our rich cultural heritage and reminds us of the enduring power of storytelling through art. It invites us to delve deeper into Greek mythology while appreciating the craftsmanship behind each stroke on paper.
