Visite commentée : Une heure, une oeuvre
Guided tour of Château Montbéliard Wurtemberg: one hour, one work "Aeschylus and the tortoise, deciphering a tragic painting".
This "One hour, one work" tour presents one or more objects from the collections, deciphered for the occasion. Led by a Pays de Montbéliard Agglomération guide.
An eagle with a tortoise in its claws flies over a busy old man with his book and pen. As if in a suspended moment, the scene suggests the fatal moment that follows: the tragic death of the character, the famous poet and playwright Aeschylus. Oracle, anecdote, fact or fable? Let's explore the sources and identity of this singular 17th-century work, and decipher its style, palette and iconography.
