According to Isaac Moillon around 1614-1673 - Aeneas and Achate presenting themselves at Dido.
The Aeneid is an epic written between 29 and 19 BC by Virgil. It tells the adventures of Aeneas, a Trojan son of Anchise and the goddess Venus, from the capture of Troy to his installation in Lazio, Italy, and his arrival in Carthage where he met Queen Dido, the passage represented by our painting.

In more detail, the legend of the Aeneid tells us that after the fall of Troy, Aeneas left this city, with Achate and the Trojan survivors, to found a new city in Italy under the orders of the gods. But an oracle says that the future city built by Aeneas will bring the destruction of Carthage. So Juno, to protect his city, asked Aeolus to create strong winds to kill Aeneas. Poseidon, at Venus' request, calmed the sea and the Trojan boat ran aground on the Carthaginian shores. Juno will do everything possible to make Aeneas fall in love with Dido, queen of the city, and thus prevent the future prophecy from being fulfilled.
