EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Bowl with Aeneas at Carthage" created by the renowned artist Raphael. Crafted in 1545, this earthenware masterpiece is currently housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. The bowl's intricate design and vibrant colors immediately draw viewers into a scene that depicts Aeneas, a legendary hero from ancient Rome, amidst the grandeur of Carthage. The artwork's tin-glazed surface beautifully captures shades of brown, grey, orange, blue, and white to bring life to its subjects and surroundings. Standing at a diameter of 25.3 cm, it exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship prevalent during Europe's sixteenth century. Raphael collaborated with several talented individuals such as Marcantonio Raimondi and Francesco Durantino to create this stunning piece. Guido di Merlino also played a significant role in its creation between 1540-1545. The bowl transports us back to Italy's Marche region specifically Pesaro e Urbino where it was crafted under Raphael's guidance. Its depiction of Carthage evokes images of North Africa and Tunisia while celebrating Arab culture through its architectural elements like colonnades and columns. This work not only highlights Raphael's artistic genius but also serves as an ode to heroism with Aeneas taking center stage as a symbol of strength and bravery. It stands as a testament to Italian artistry during this period while offering viewers an immersive experience into history and culture.
