“Aphrodite Rescues Aeneus” is painting twelve out of twelve in the “Pandarus Broke the Truce – A Tale from the Iliad of Homer” series by Koen Satyawan based on a sketch by Frederick John Kluth. Aphrodite rescues Aeneus. Aeneus tried to save the body dead. But Diomedes struck him with a rock. Then Aphrodite came to save her son and got a wound that developed a shock. Now Aphrodite saved her son from harm. There is a sense to this strange tale told. Wisdom and honor can subjugate passion. A brave heart can wound love by action bold.
