EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the painting "Enee narrant a Didon the misfortunes of Troy" by Baron Pierre Narcisse Guerin. Created in 1819, this oil on canvas masterpiece belongs to the French Art movement of the 19th century and is currently housed at the Musee des Beaux Arts de Bordeaux. The painting depicts a powerful scene from Greek mythology, where Aeneas narrates the tragic events that unfolded in Troy to Queen Dido. The artist skillfully captures the intensity of emotion as Aeneas recounts tales of war and destruction while seated on an elegant armchair. The woman, presumably Dido, listens intently with her hand resting gently on her chin, fully engrossed in his storytelling. Guerin's attention to detail is evident not only in his portrayal of human figures but also in his depiction of furniture and furnishings. The intricately designed chair and canape add a touch of grandeur to the composition, transporting viewers back to ancient Greece. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every brushstroke and color nuance present in Guerin's original work. This print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate this remarkable piece without having to visit Bordeaux. With its combination of mythological characters, historical context, and artistic brilliance, this photograph offers a glimpse into both ancient Greek culture and 19th-century French artistry. It serves as a testament to Guerin's talent as well as Leonard de Selva's ability to capture
