Aeneid - Aeneas and Dido's tragic love affair (Book and Comic Coloring Page)

Inspired by the Aeneid, this scene illustrates the intense and fragile love between Aeneas, a Trojan hero guided by destiny, and Dido, Queen of Carthage.

The Aeneid, written by Virgil between 29 and 19 B.C., is a founding epic of Latin literature, recounting the fate of Aeneas, the Trojan hero called by the gods to found the mythical origins of Rome.

The close glances and delicate gestures convey the silent passion that unites the two characters, just before duty and fate break their union.

An elegant and emotional depiction of ancient love, between human desire and the will of the gods.

An awesome and rather difficult Book and Comic coloring sheet, to print and color.
