EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1930s with this stunning engraving of Publius Vergilius Maro, also known as Virgil, one of ancient Rome's most celebrated poets. Created by Agostino Comerio in 1930, this intricate stipple engraving is a masterclass in detail and craftsmanship. Based on an ancient marble bust, the image captures the poet's wise and introspective gaze, as if lost in thought amidst the rolling hills of Italy.
Virgil was a true Renaissance man - a philosopher, statesman, and writer who left an indelible mark on Roman literature. His epic poem, The Aeneid, remains one of the most beloved works of classical antiquity. This engraving serves as a testament to his enduring legacy, immortalizing his likeness for generations to come.
The artist's use of stippling technique creates a sense of depth and texture that draws the viewer in. Every line and shading seems deliberate and calculated, imbuing the portrait with a sense of gravitas and authority.
This exquisite print is not only a beautiful work of art but also a window into history - transporting us back to an era when poetry was revered as an art form worthy of gods. Take a moment to appreciate the skillful craftsmanship that has gone into creating this masterpiece.
