EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century print by Peter Paul Rubens transports us to ancient Vienna, Austria. The artwork depicts the mythical tale of Cimon and Iphigenia in a scene filled with symbolism and beauty. In this horizontal composition, we see a medium group of people gathered outdoors on a sunny day. The central figures are Cimon and Iphigenia, both lying on their backs in peaceful slumber. Cimon, leaning on his cane, bends towards Iphigenia as if drawn to her presence. His gentle touch reveals the deep connection between these two characters from literature. Surrounding them are men and women representing various aspects of ancient Roman society. A cherub hovers above them all, adding an ethereal touch to the scene. The baroque style is evident in Rubens' masterful use of light and shadow, creating depth and drama within the painted image. This print not only showcases Rubens' artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to his fascination with ancient Greece's rich mythology. Through his brushstrokes, he brings this timeless story to life for viewers centuries later. As we gaze upon this exquisite piece from Universal Images Group (UIG), we can't help but be transported back in time - immersed in the enchanting world created by one of history's greatest artists.
