"Lepanto" - Cy Twombly

Vintage illustrated work on the art of Cy Twombly

First exhibited at the Venice Biennale in the summer of 2001, this series of 12 paintings depicts the famous 16th-century naval battle between the European forces united under Venice and the Ottoman invasion.
The series is meant to be viewed as a single image, like a panoramic representation of the war on a heroic scale, with the viewer positioned in the midst of a battle that concludes with the destruction of the Turkish fleet at Lepanto.
