EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to a scene from the renowned literary work "Stories from Virgil" beautifully illustrated by Bartolomeo Pinelli. Published in 1879, this image depicts a pivotal moment between two formidable characters - Camilla and the son of Aunus. Following the aftermath of the Trojan War, Camilla emerges as a fierce warrior, daughter of King Metabus and Casmilla. In her quest for vengeance against Aeneas, she aligns herself with Turnus' army. However, it is during this tumultuous time that she faces an unexpected challenge. The son of Aunus dares to confront Camilla on equal footing - demanding they engage in combat without their trusted steeds. This confrontation symbolizes more than just physical prowess; it represents a clash of ideologies and honor. As we gaze upon this print, we witness the intensity etched on both figures' faces. Camilla's determination radiates through her poised stance while the son of Aunus exudes confidence in his audacious request. Through Alfred J. Church's masterful storytelling and Pinelli's evocative illustrations, we are reminded of timeless themes such as bravery, sacrifice, and loyalty that permeate Virgil's epic poem "The Aeneid". This print serves as a visual testament to these enduring narratives while inviting us to delve deeper into the rich tapestry woven by ancient legends.
