EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Luca Giordano's masterpiece, "Aeneas made immortal by Venus" painted in the second half of the 17th century. The oil on canvas artwork is housed at the Museo Civico Palazzo Chiericati in Vicenza, Italy. Giordano's skillful brushstrokes bring to life a mythological scene filled with divine figures and transformative power. In this painting, Aeneas, a legendary hero from ancient Roman mythology, is being granted immortality by the goddess Venus. Bathed in heavenly light and surrounded by billowing clouds, Aeneas stands tall as his mortal form undergoes an extraordinary metamorphosis into eternal life. This depiction captures both the awe-inspiring beauty of divine intervention and the profound significance of immortality. Giordano's attention to detail is evident throughout this piece; every element contributes to its ethereal atmosphere. The softness of colors and delicate play of light create a sense of otherworldliness that transports viewers into a realm where gods walk among mortals. The artist's portrayal not only celebrates classical mythology but also explores themes such as longevity and transformation. Through his masterful technique, Giordano invites us to contemplate our own mortality while marveling at the possibility of transcendence. Ghigo Roli has expertly captured this remarkable artwork through photography, preserving its intricate details for all admirers to enjoy. This print serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and timeless storytelling found within Luca Giordano's work.
