EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the engraving of "Virgil the Sorcerer" by Baldini, Baccio. Measuring 29.2x42.6 cm, this artwork is housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, MN, USA. The image depicts Publius Vergilius Maro, commonly known as Virgil or Vergil in English, an ancient Roman poet from the Augustan period. Virgil is renowned for his three major works of Latin literature: the Eclogues (or Bucolics), the Georgics, and the epic Aeneid. This engraving captures his enigmatic persona and mythical abilities as a sorcerer with a touch of medieval charm. The scene portrays Virgil using his magical powers to extinguish fires caused by mischievous animals in a domestic setting. Legend has it that these creatures were sent to him by a spurned daughter seeking revenge on her father's ridicule. With its intricate details and rich symbolism, this artwork transports viewers into an ancient world filled with tales of love, power struggles, and fantastical beings. It serves as a reminder of Virgil's significant contributions to Roman literature and his enduring legacy as one of history's greatest poets. As we gaze upon this enchanting print from Bridgeman Images' collection at Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of how art can beautifully capture moments from our past while igniting our imagination for centuries to come.
