Description
Step into the golden haze of myth and beauty with The Judgment of Paris (1645/1646) by Claude Lorrain, a breathtaking oil on canvas masterpiece where gods and mortals meet in a dreamlike landscape. This legendary scene captures the pivotal moment in Greek mythology when Paris must choose the fairest goddess—Aphrodite, Hera, or Athena—setting into motion the epic events of the Trojan War. Lorrain’s mastery of light and atmosphere bathes the figures in an ethereal glow, transforming a tale of divine rivalry into a serene, almost otherworldly vision. With his signature classical landscape and radiant skies, Lorrain blends mythology and nature in a poetic tribute to beauty, power, and fate. This is not just a painting—it’s a myth reborn in golden brushstrokes.
