EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the painting "Paysage d'orage avec Enee et Didon" (Landscape with Aeneas and Dido), an illustration of Virgil's epic poem, the Aeneid. Created by Thomas Jones in 1769, this masterpiece measures 137.5x193.5 cm and is housed in the renowned Musee de l'Ermitage in Saint Petersburg. Jones skillfully depicts a dramatic scene amidst a stormy landscape, where mythological figures Aeneas and Dido find themselves caught in a tempestuous environment. The artist's use of color brings to life the intensity of the storm, with lightning illuminating the darkened sky above a dense forest. The wind howls through the trees as ominous clouds loom overhead. This British painter expertly captures both danger and fear within his composition, emphasizing mankind's vulnerability against nature's wrath. Through this artwork, Jones explores themes of mythology and meteorology while showcasing his mastery of capturing light and atmosphere. The photograph beautifully preserves every detail of this remarkable painting from the 18th century, allowing viewers to appreciate its intricate brushwork and vibrant colors. It serves as a testament to Jones' artistic talent and provides us with insight into his interpretation of classical literature. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly captured this extraordinary piece for art enthusiasts worldwide to enjoy without commercial intent or mention thereof.
