EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nos patriam fugimus (Tityrus and Meliboeus)" by Ker Xavier Roussel takes us on a journey through time and space. Created in 1914, this pastel on cardboard masterpiece transports us to the ancient Roman countryside, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. The artwork depicts three figures - Tityrus, Meliboeus, and another man - set against a breathtaking landscape. The shepherd-like characters are reminiscent of Virgil's pastoral poetry from the first century BC. As they stand amidst nature's beauty, their expressions seem filled with both determination and melancholy. Roussel skillfully captures the essence of literature and antiquity in this piece. The soft pastel hues add depth to the scene while maintaining an air of tranquility. Each stroke reveals the artist's meticulous attention to detail, immersing viewers into this idyllic world. Displayed at Kunstmuseum Winterthur in Switzerland, this photograph beautifully preserves Roussel's artistic vision for generations to come. It serves as a reminder that art can transcend time and language barriers, allowing us to connect with our shared human experiences across centuries. As we gaze upon "Nos patriam fugimus" we cannot help but be transported back in time; it is as if we too are partaking in Tityrus and Meliboeus' departure from their homeland. This stunning artwork invites contemplation about our own journeys through life – where have we come from
