- Abstract
The paper examines the seven pictures woven into Jason's mantle in Apollonius' Argonautica (1.721-68), focusing on the function of their description and on its position in the broader context of the poem. Every picture presents a mythological tale which is related, in content or metaphor, to events in the Argonautica. The division between description and narrative is generally blurred, as the description itself tends to combine narrative and descriptive parts. Since this suggests the simultaneous presence of two media, verbal and visual, the paper traces the possible direct influences exerted by the visual arts, or at least by single iconographic motifs. It demonstrates the interweaving of visual and verbal techniques in each description, identifies the elements which create visual effects, and suggests ways of recognising 'pictorial realism'.
