EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Laemedon Punished by Apollo and Poseidon" transports us to a moment frozen in time, capturing the intensity of this dramatic scene. Painted by Pierre Dulin in 1707, this oil on canvas masterpiece depicts the punishment inflicted upon Laemedon, the king of Troy. Intriguingly, Laemedon had refused to compensate Apollo and Poseidon for their assistance in constructing the city walls. As retribution, Apollo unleashed a devastating plague while Poseidon summoned a terrifying sea-monster. The image portrays these vengeful gods towering over Laemedon with expressions of wrath and determination etched upon their faces. The composition is filled with symbolism as well; we witness a nude male figure representing Laemedon's vulnerability juxtaposed against powerful deities who hold tridents symbolizing their divine authority. A chariot stands nearby, serving as a reminder that even kings are not immune to consequences when they defy higher powers. This haunting portrayal evokes horror and fear within viewers as they contemplate the consequences of greed and arrogance. Through skillful brushwork, Dulin captures both the physical torment suffered by Laemedon and his emotional anguish at facing such divine retribution. Displayed at Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, this artwork continues to captivate audiences centuries after its creation. It serves as an enduring testament to humanity's fascination with mythology and our eternal quest for understanding life's complexities through
