Benito Captivity Codex Escorial Lorenzo Monastery Mora Trojan 15th
EDITORS COMMENTS
Folio 69r of the Codex Benito Santa Mora, housed in the Royal Library of the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial in Spain, presents a captivating and intricately detailed miniature painting depicting a scene from the Trojan War. The Gothic art masterpiece, created in the 15th century, portrays the moment of Antenor's captivity. Antenor, a Trojan prince and a close friend of Odysseus, is shown being led away by Greek soldiers, while his wife, Iphigenia, clings to him in despair. The vivid colors and meticulous brushstrokes bring the scene to life, with the soldiers' armor and the rich fabrics of their cloaks shining in the muted light. The background is filled with the chaos of war, with flames engulfing buildings and smoke rising into the sky. This miniature painting is a testament to the artistic skill and creativity of the artist during the Gothic period in Spain. The Codex Benito Santa Mora is a valuable addition to the Royal Library of the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial, offering a glimpse into the past and the rich artistic heritage of Spain.
