It housed the famous<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Bacchanals<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Bellini, Titian and Dosso himself, following the scheme devised by the Campania-born humanist Mario Equicola. For the entire decoration of the Camerino, Equicola conceived \u201csei fabulae o vero hystorie\u201d (six fables i.e. histories) for the duke\u2019s \u201cpictura di una camera\u201d (painting of a room). In this sphere of complex meanings and iconographic connections, the story of Aeneas, understood in a neo-Platonic sense as \u201ca journey of errors but also of growth\u201d, as Alessandro Ballarin defined it, interpreted the patron\u2019s events in a political sense.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1598, after Ferrara devolved to the Papal States, the Camerino was stripped of its masterpieces by the cardinals of the papal court, referred to by contemporaries as \u201cRoman harpies\u201d, and thereby stripped of the main body of decorations. These included Giovanni Bellini\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Feast of the Gods<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (National Gallery of Art, Washington); Titian\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Andrians<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Worship of Venus<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Madrid, Prado Museum); Titian\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bacchus and Ariadne<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (London, National Gallery), as well as a fifth canvas that some critics have recently identified as a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Triumph of Bacchus<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (now in Mumbai), attributed to Dosso Dossi himself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bacchanals<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which Cardinal Aldobrandini took for his collection, the ten canvases of the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aeneas Frieze <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">remained <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in situ<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> until 1608, when they became part of the collection of Cardinal Scipione Borghese (1577-1633), nephew of Pope Paul V \u201centrato in humore di belle pitture\u201d (in the mood for beautiful paintings), together with many other paintings by artists from Ferrara and Dosso Dossi himself, including the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Melissa, Apollo and Daphne<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Saints Cosmas and Damian<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, exhibited on the occasion of the exhibition in this same room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The figure of Aeneas, the pious and virtuous Virgilian hero, whose landing in Lazio was believed to be at the origin of the foundation of Rome, the future seat of the universal empire of the Roman Church, was also of special importance in the context of the Borghese pontificate, to the extent that he was represented in two masterpieces in the gallery: Federico Barocci\u2019s large painting <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aeneas Fleeing from Troy<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and in Gian Lorenzo Bernini\u2019s sculptural group commissioned by the cardinal himself. But the presence of the landscapes that Dosso uses to set Virgil\u2019s poem suggests other references to the Borghese collection, such as the four <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tondi<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Francesco Albani with the stories of Venus and Diana, below which some canvases of the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frieze<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> were displayed in the Borghese palace in Ripetta, when the epic subject was forgotten in the inventories at the end of the 17th century: a suggestion that the exhibition allows us to recall.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Documented until the end of the 18th century in Casa Borghese, the series reappeared again as a complete set in 1856 in Madrid in the catalogue of the personal collection of the Prado director Jos\u00e9 de Madrazo y Agudo (1781-1859), only to be subsequently dispersed throughout various collections. Today only seven of the ten canvases are known.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dosso depicted episodes from Books I, III, V and VI of the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aeneid<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> without a strict chronological relationship, concentrating several events into one painting: from the shipwreck on the Libyan coast to the prophetic landing in Sicily, from the games in memory of the deceased Anchises to the journey to the Underworld.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dosso stays true to the story in his narration of the exploits in Virgil\u2019s tale, but he populates the scenes with a myriad of lively figures, at times small and quickly rendered, bizarre and very human, dressed in flamboyant 16th-century garments, immersed in fantastic landscapes where the buildings blend with the colours of the sky and the horizon, surrounded by lush vegetation. With his whimsical and unmistakable style, Dosso shows his skill in transforming mythology into a \u201cfable full of colour\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The exhibition is an opportunity to admire most of the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frieze<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: the canvases, from the Louvre Abu Dhabi, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, the Prado and a private collection, are reunited for this event only and exhibited together for the first time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/galleriaborghese.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/A1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1071\" height=\"352\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dosso Dossi<br \/>\n(Giovanni di Nicol\u00f2 Luteri, Tramuschio ?, c. 1487 \u2013 Ferrara, 1542)<br \/>\nThe Cretan Plague<br \/>\nc. 1520-1521 \u2013 Oil on canvas<br \/>\nAbu Dhabi, Louvre Abu Dhabi, inv.

Much of the canvas is dominated by the effects of the disease on the population, who arrived on the Greek island following the erroneous indication of Anchises who described it as the place for the creation of a new Troy. On the left, only partially visible due to the folding of the canvas on the stretcher, another moment from book III, in which Aeneas &#8211; recognizable by his plumed helmet<br \/>\n&#8211; and his father Anchises meet King Anius, priest of Apollo. Still difficult to interpret, however, is the scene in the background on the right, populated by a myriad of small figures which, perhaps, alludes to a moment of ephemeral serenity experienced by the Trojans in Crete.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/galleriaborghese.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/A6_.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dosso Dossi<br \/>\n(Giovanni di Nicol\u00f2 Luteri, Tramuschio ?, c. 1487 \u2013 Ferrara, 1542)<br \/>\nArrival of the Trojans at the Strophades Islands and Attack by the Harpies<br \/>\nc. 1518-1519 \u2013 Oil on canvas<br \/>\nMadrid, Museo Nacional del Prado, inv. 3011<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But suddenly the Harpies arrive, in a fearsome swoop<br \/>\nfrom the hills, flapping their wings with a huge noise,<br \/>\nsnatching at the food, and fouling everything with their<br \/>\nfilthy touch; then there\u2019s a deadly shriek<br \/>\namongst the foul stench.\u201d<br \/>\nVirgil, Aeneid,<br \/>\nBook III, 226-229<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The canvas consists of two distinct episodes, both taken from book III. In the left half, we see the banquet that the Trojans prepare as soon as they arrive on the Strofades islands. Here the Harpies, monsters with wings and female heads, attack them soiling the banquet because the trojans were guilty of killing the sacred cattle of the island. The Trojan counterattack, led by Aeneas on horseback and by the trumpeter Miseno, is answered by Celano, the cruelest of the harpies, painted on the far left on the cliff while prophesying misfortunes for the<br \/>\nrefugees. On the right, in the foreground, another scene: the group intent on having refreshments in the shade of a grove probably refers to the meeting between Aeneas, Anchises, Andromache, Hector\u2019s widow, her new husband Helenus who will guide Aeneas towards Italy<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/galleriaborghese.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/A2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1065\" height=\"357\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dosso Dossi<br \/>\n(Giovanni di Nicol\u00f2 Luteri, Tramuschio ?, c. 1487 \u2013 Ferrara, 1542)<br \/>\nSicilian Games in Memory of Anchises and Foundation of a City in Sicily<br \/>\nc. 1518-1519 \u2013 Oil on canvas<br \/>\nAbu Dhabi, Louvre Abu Dhabi, inv.

The crowd assembled on the left is watching the games held to commemorate Anchises, Aeneas\u2019 father: there is certainly the archery contest, recognizable by the men in the center of the painting, the other disciplines are more uncertain: perhaps the boxing and equestrian carousels or horse racing and ship racing. In the background rises the smoke from the ships pyres set by the Trojan women, deceived by Iris and Juno, probably represented on the cloud in the sky, with a glow that recalls the Raphaelesque Madonna of Foligno. On the far right, Aeneas is painted in the<br \/>\nact of tracing the perimeter of a new city, Ac\u00e8sta, for all those who will decide to stop in Sicily<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/galleriaborghese.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/GaBor23.03_0049b-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1071\" height=\"379\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dosso Dossi<br \/>\n(Giovanni di Nicol\u00f2 Luteri, Tramuschio ?, c. 1487 \u2013 Ferrara, 1542)<br \/>\nThe Repair of the Trojan Ships;<br \/>\nthe Building of the Temple to Venus at Eryx and the Offerings at Anchises\u2019s Grave<br \/>\nc. 1518-1519 \u2013 Oil on canvas<br \/>\nWashington, DC National Gallery of Art, Samuel H.

In the foreground, two men dressed in Renaissance clothing \u2013 probably identifiable as King Aceste and Aeneas \u2013 watch the scene thoughtfully.<br \/>\nIn the right half, the Trojan people have already landed in Sicily.

The canvas, on display for the first time and discovered in 2014, is totally dedicated to the sinners of Tartarus. Aeneas and the Sibyl are not present, because Tartarus is only described to Aeneas, he will never really set foot in the deepest part of Hades. Here, monstrous executioners oppress the souls, among which Tizio can be recognized on the left, lying with the eagle devouring his liver. At the opposite end there is Charon intent on ferrying souls to the Acheron. In this painting, more than in the others, Dosso gives free rein to his whimsical imagination, creating<br \/>\nscenes that refer to the imaginative painting of the dutchman Hieronymus Bosch. Following this vision, Aeneas will reach the Elysian Fields where he will be able to see his father Anchises again<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Aeneas Frieze by Dosso Dossi (1468-1542) originally adorned the upper band of the walls in the Camerino d\u2019Alabastro of Alfonso I d\u2019Este (1476-1534), a celebrated place of the European Renaissance that was completed over a decade starting in 1513.
