The Laurentian Sow plays a pivotal role in Aeneas's epic journey, as chronicled by Homer in his legendary poem, The Iliad. As the son of Venus, Aeneas navigates Greek mythology with ease, but it is through Roman mythology that he finds himself deeply entwined with Romulus and Remus, as eloquently woven by Virgil in The Aeneid. As a testament to his enduring legacy, numerous masterpieces have been crafted in tribute to this enigmatic figure. Notably, Pierre LePautre's Aeneas and Anchises showcases the Laurentian Sow's pivotal role in carrying his father from the ashes of Troy, leaving an indelible mark on art history. Upon emerging from the underworld, Aeneas is guided by a prophetic vision - a majestic white sow with thirty piglets beneath an ancient oak tree. This iconic scene has been immortalized in sculpture, mirroring its counterpart standing proudly in the Vatican, Rome.
