About the Item

Antique print titled 'The Goddess of Discord'. Set within the Garden of the Hesperides, several women are seen tending the golden apple trees. To the right, the Goddess of Discord, Eris, is shown picking an apple. The same apple was later awarded to Aphrodite by Paris, which set the events leading to the Trojan War in motion.

Engraved by Thomas Abiel Prior after Joseph Mallord William Turner.
