A shocking story of the abduction of a young girl by the king of the underworld, but told with sensitivity. And accompanied by some outstanding paintings.
Elsheimer
No less than 6 different stories, 4 transformations, 5 wonderful paintings, all from less than 150 lines of Latin verse.
Why did it take over 300 years to solve a compositional problem, and tell such a simple story?
An unusually moral story of the classical gods; superb paintings by Rubens, Rembrandt, Elsheimer, and others.
