About the piece
Painted around 1620 by Christian Richter, this oil on panel work depicts the classical myth of the Judgement of Paris. In this unique interpretation, Paris is portrayed in full contemporary armor, seated beside an elder holding the golden apple, while the three goddesses—Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite—present themselves against a sweeping landscape of jagged peaks and winding waters.
