The Judgment of Paris

Oil on canvas, 73 x 59 cm
Private collection

The present canvas is an early work by Rosi. Compared with his more complicated and multi figured mature pictures, compositions from his early career can be generally categorized as simpler, and with only a few essential figures.

Rosi executed another version of the present composition, of slightly larger dimensions (Staatsgalerie, Stuttgart).
