On the shore, in the shade of mighty trees, the Trojan women kindle flames against the hulls of the ships – weary of wandering, they long to halt the journey and settle on new land. Fire blossoms within the Arcadian scenery like an unsettling counterpoint to the luminous bay.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith masterful subtlety Lorrain balances the elements: water and land, the silence of nature and the violence of human action, the cool blue of the sea and the warm tongues of flame. The architecture in the distance and the slender masts build a rhythm of verticals, while the light – as ever with this painter – becomes the true protagonist, binding everything into a harmonious, almost musical composition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHere an epic theme from Virgil's 'Aeneid' is filtered through a landscapist's sensibility. Rather than dwell on the terror of the revolt, Lorrain surrounds it with the beauty of the world, lending the drama an elegiac, reflective tone. The picture draws the viewer into the story yet lets it be read slowly, to the rhythm of light flowing toward the horizon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe scene recalls an episode from the 'Aeneid' in which the Trojan women, exhausted by their sea-wandering and incited by a goddess, try to burn Aeneas's ships in Sicily. Lorrain returned often to Virgilian themes, treating myth as a pretext for his radiant, ideal harbour landscapes.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 1px; padding-top: 16px; padding-right: 32px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"width: 1px; background: rgba(255,255,255,0.2); height: 100%; min-height: 120px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45%; vertical-align: top; padding-top: 16px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDETAILS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTitle: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Trojan Women Setting Fire to Their Fleet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal title: \u003c\/strong\u003e Les Troyennes mettant le feu à leur flotte\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003eClaude Lorrain\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDate: \u003c\/strong\u003e XVII wiek (ok. 1643)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlace of origin: \u003c\/strong\u003eRome, Italy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType :\u003c\/strong\u003e Painting\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique: \u003c\/strong\u003eOil on canvas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003ePejzaż historyczny z motywem mitologicznym\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003eBarok (klasycyzm barokowy)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eForm: \u003c\/strong\u003ePainting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giclee Art","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ S \/ Pine","offer_id":57785635733852,"sku":null,"price":59.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ S \/ Oak","offer_id":57785635766620,"sku":null,"price":82.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ L \/ Pine","offer_id":57785635799388,"sku":null,"price":101.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ L \/ Oak","offer_id":57785635832156,"sku":null,"price":124.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ XL \/ Pine","offer_id":57785635864924,"sku":null,"price":149.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ XL \/ Oak","offer_id":57785635897692,"sku":null,"price":181.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Light brown \/ S \/ Oak","offer_id":57785635930460,"sku":null,"price":82.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Light brown \/ L \/ Oak","offer_id":57785635963228,"sku":null,"price":124.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Light brown \/ XL \/ Oak","offer_id":57785635995996,"sku":null,"price":181.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Brown \/ S \/ Oak","offer_id":57785636028764,"sku":null,"price":82.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Brown \/ L \/ Oak","offer_id":57785636061532,"sku":null,"price":124.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Brown \/ XL \/ Oak","offer_id":57785636094300,"sku":null,"price":181.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark brown \/ S \/ Oak","offer_id":57785636127068,"sku":null,"price":82.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark brown \/ L \/ Oak","offer_id":57785636159836,"sku":null,"price":124.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark brown \/ XL \/ Oak","offer_id":57785636192604,"sku":null,"price":181.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/0517\/2828\/files\/Claude_Lorrain_-_The_Trojan_Women_Setting_Fire_to_Their_Fleet_-_Full.webp?v=1780447829","url":"https:\/\/gicleeart.eu\/en-eu\/products\/claude-lorrain-trojanki-podpalajace-swoja-flote","provider":"Giclee Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
