EDITORS COMMENTS
This panel painting titled "Achilles: among the daughters of Lycomedes" by Francken, Frans II the Younger is a true masterpiece that captures a moment of intrigue and allure. The scene unfolds within an opulent indoor setting, adorned with exquisite details such as armor, a globe, and ornate tableware. In the center of the composition stands Achilles, the legendary Greek hero disguised as a woman to avoid being drafted into the Trojan War. Surrounding him are the daughters of Lycomedes, who remain unaware of his true identity. Each daughter exudes grace and beauty as they engage in conversation with Achilles. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element portrayed - from delicate jewelry and luxurious fabrics to intricate patterns on vases and shells scattered around. A parrot perched on a nearby branch adds an exotic touch to this already enchanting tableau. One cannot help but be captivated by this painting's rich colors and skillful composition. It invites us into a world where myth intertwines with reality, where secrets lie hidden beneath layers of artistry. This print serves as both a visual delight and an intriguing glimpse into ancient tales. Displayed proudly at Galerie de Jonckheere in Paris, France, this artwork continues to mesmerize viewers with its timeless charm. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of the enduring power that fine art holds - transporting us across centuries while evoking emotions that transcend time itself.
