EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil on canvas artwork by Joseph Mallord William Turner, we are transported to the mythical Garden of the Hesperides. The scene depicts "The Goddess of Discord Choosing the Apple of Contention" a moment that would forever change Greek mythology. Painted in 1806, this masterpiece showcases Turner's exceptional talent as an English artist. The painting portrays a pivotal event where three goddesses - Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite - eagerly await the decision of Eris, the Goddess of Discord. In her hands lies the golden apple that will ultimately spark chaos and lead to the Trojan War. With meticulous brushstrokes and vibrant colors, Turner captures every detail of their ethereal beauty amidst lush greenery. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, we can almost feel the tension in the air as Eris deliberates over which goddess is most deserving of this coveted prize. The composition exudes both harmony and discord simultaneously – a testament to Turner's ability to convey complex emotions through his art. "The Goddess of Discord Choosing the Apple" remains an iconic representation not only for its historical significance but also for its artistic brilliance. It serves as a reminder that even within paradise-like settings such as these gardens, conflict can arise unexpectedly. This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) allows us to appreciate Turner's genius up close and invites us into a world where mythological tales come alive through breathtaking visuals.
