Aristomenes Mourning the Death of Socrates from the Bewitchment of Meroë

Aristomenes Mourning the Death of Socrates from the Bewitchment of Meroe (from Book 1 of Apuleius, " The Golden Ass" ), 1795. This scene represents the end of a complex episode from the Roman writer Apuleiuss (2nd century ad) story The Golden Ass. Aristomenes narrates a tale to the books main character, Lucius, about a friend named Socrates, whom he meets during his travels. After a disastrous affair with a witch named Meroe, Socrates dies from a wound she inflicts to his throat, and the scene shown here is the moment just after his death. Chaudet is mainly known as a sculptor, but he also designed a number of book illustrations for the most important publisher of the neoclassic period, the Didot firm. Although we know he did a number of drawings for The Golden Ass, the project was never realized as a book
